Job description

You will use your own vehicle to pick up clients and transport them to where they need to go - this could be a hospital appointment, medical visit, a social activity or even to do their shopping.

What you'll be doing:

  • Accepting and completing pre-arranged journeys for our clients.
  • Keeping a meticulous log of all journeys undertaken and client requests.
  • Waiting for clients for return journeys, ensuring their comfort and timely transport.
  • Reimbursing UFY for booking fees on a regular basis (details will be provided during induction).

All driver miles are reimbursed at a rate of 55p per mile.

This is a profoundly rewarding opportunity to make a tangible difference in the lives of individuals within our community, helping them maintain their independence and connection. If you're ready to get behind the wheel and support those who need it most, we encourage you to apply!

This opportunity is open to those aged 25+.

You will need your own vehicle, and a valid UK driving license.

You don't need to have any experience as a volunteer driver, but we do ask that you are the following:

  • A safe and confident driver with a valid UK driving license.
  • Reliable, punctual, and committed to their volunteer shifts.
  • Patient and understanding, with a good level of interpersonal skills.
  • Comfortable keeping accurate records.
  • Able to treat all clients with respect and dignity.

Community Transport operates Monday - Friday, mainly within office hours (8.30 - 5). Drivers can be available as much or as little as they wish, there is no time requirement or set days. We will have this conversation with you as part of your onboarding process.
