Volunteer driver for the Bilgaard Neighbourhood Car Scheme

We are looking for drivers for the Bilgaard Transport Project. As a volunteer driver, you will drive a local resident from A to B in an Opel Agila with automatic transmission. This service is primarily aimed at people with limited mobility and older people who feel uneasy about going out on their own. This could include a shopping service or a trip to the library or MCL. The initiative for this project comes from the Bilgaard Neighbourhood Association and the Bilgaard Neighbourhood Panel. Volunteers are scheduled as part of a pool.


What does the organisation offer the volunteer?

  • A friendly workplace with many fellow volunteers;
  • Four weeks of summer holidays and two weeks of Christmas holidays;
  • Throughout the year several fun activities for our volunteers;
  • Opportunity to take courses that enhance your work
  • A Christmas package in December.


What does the organisation ask of the volunteer?

  • You are task- and people-oriented
  • Aged 18 or over
  • Hold a valid driving licence
  • First aid certificate preferred, but not essential

In addition, there will be a demonstration on how to help people with mobility difficulties get in and out of the car. (You may bring a walking frame or folding wheelchair.)
