Rochdale Volunteer Driver Scheme - HMR Circle
About
The Volunteer Drivers Scheme provides transport for adults who find it difficult to use public transport - for example, because they are elderly, have mobility problems or a mental illness.
What we do
The service can be used for regular or one off journeys to social events or medical appointments. Accompanying carers travel at no extra cost.
There is a small cost for an annual membership subscription, and then for each journey booked a mileage contribution per mile to reimburse the drivers for their petrol and to support the cost of insuring and maintaining their vehicles. The drivers do not get paid for their time, this is donated voluntarily.
A DBS check will be undertaken for this volunteering opportunity.
