Volunteering Roles
Volunteers can be involved in a number of different ways:
Volunteer Drivers
Volunteer Drivers collect clients from their home and take them to medical appointments and other health-related trips. A mileage allowance and out-of-pocket expenses are paid to Volunteer Drivers. Our drivers can choose how frequently and how far they would like to drive.
Volunteer Coordinators
Link Coordinators are responsible for answering calls from clients and liaising with our team of Volunteer Drivers. Link Coordinators may need to prioritise requests for help with transport, depending on volunteer numbers.
Committee Members
There are a variety of ways volunteers can be involved with helping to organise and oversee our service, supporting volunteers and maintaining links with other community and volunteer organisations locally.
We are always looking for new volunteers to support Any Link Scheme. If you want to meet new people, make friends and give something back to your community, we want to hear from you!
