Car Service
Volunteer Drivers Wanted!
Are you a car driver with some spare time and would like to help your local community?
You would use your own car to provide individual transport for healthcare journeys such as the doctors, hospital, dentists and chiropodist or to visit someone in hospital.
- How often you drive depends on you and what time you have to spare. You could become one of our regular drivers or just drive on an occasional basis.
- How far you drive depends on whether you prefer local journeys around town or to hospitals further away.
- Expenses are paid on a mileage basis. We have arranged with local hospitals for your parking to be free.
- Your Insurance is covered and your 'no claims' bonus is protected by the Car Scheme's insurance policy.
- To apply to become a driver then please contact our office.
