Volunteer Driver- Truro

Our activity group drivers are a vital part of the Re-engage team. Drivers take older people to a local activity group and stay with them to enjoy the get-together or can leave and come back. Over time, drivers and older guests get to know each other well and together you will spend many hours full of fun, laughter, and stories. As an activity group driver, you liaise with your group coordinator and take older guests to and from the activity groups each month. 

Skills

- Full driving licence and use of a car.

- Patience & compassion for elderly people.  

- First Aid knowledge an advantage but not essential.

About Re-engage

Re-engage rely on volunteers to help with our work to end social isolation in the UK's oldest older people. As well as an LGBT+ specific telephone befriending service, we run free, regular social groups for isolated older people. Each group is run thanks to a host of local volunteers who give up their time to brighten the lives of older people who have found themselves alone during the later stages of life.
