WE ARE LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEER DRIVERS TO UNDERTAKE TRIPS TO LOCAL HEALTHCARE CENTRES

Could you be one of our amazing network of volunteer drivers?

Hospitality Manager

Salary: £33,024 - £37,336 GBP year

‘I

find the role really rewarding. I meet some really nice families and feel at the end of each drive that I have made a difference to that family and to the wider local community as a whole. Also the support given by the office team and other drivers means you never feel isolated and they are always on hand to support you when the need arises. Having volunteered for a few local charities since I retired, Transport for Sick Children is by far the most rewarding by a long way’ John Kirkham, Volunteer driver

Interested in becoming a volunteer?

Our volunteer drivers (who are all DBS checked for their suitability to work with children) use their own cars to collect the child and carer and take them to the appointment then wait and bring them home. Drivers decide how much time they want to give, child car seats are supplied and petrol costs are reimbursed on a monthly basis.

It’s really worthwhile and is so appreciated by the children, their families and the NHS.
