We have been delighted with the
response to our first appeal but the more volunteers we can sign up the
more we can expand our services. Do you enjoy driving, meeting and
helping people? Are you aged between 25 And 70? Do you have a few hours
to spare on an occasional or regular basis? Then please consider
joining us as a volunteer driver. Volunteers drivers will drive for our
daily shopper services and the Wealdlink trips service for which we
have already had many requests. Trips will vary from short local runs
to longer excursions.
Full MiDAS training will be given and our drivers must be happy to deal
courteously and helpfully with all passengers, particularly as many may
be elderly, infirm, or have physical or other disabilities. All out of
pocket expenses will be met.

To operate our services requires a whole range of jobs including:
Passenger
Assistants:-
When available passenger
assistants are an invaluable help to our drivers. Travelling with the
bus they
can help locate each address, help the passengers on and off, deal with
fares
etc. All this reduces the time the driver would spend and generally
saves a
great deal of time for both the outgoing and return journeys.
Office
Staff:-
Everything to help our office run and
grow efficiently. Whatever your skills from just taking calls to
planning our
trips, from simple filing to meeting up with and dispatching our
drivers having
assisted to get the bus through its daily safety check, we could really
use
you. Full
details may obtained from Linda or Scott on 01892
771332 or 01892 770487 or email nwctp@4weald.co.uk
We
also have vacancies for paid part time drivers and passenger assistants
for our contract services. Full training will be given and
our
drivers and assistants must be happy to deal courteously and helpfully
with all
passengers,
particularly as many may be elderly, infirm, or have physical or other
disabilities. Full details
may obtained from Linda on 01892 770487
