Car and Community Vehicle Driver

We are in constant need of volunteer drivers to use their own cars to provide transport for frail, elderly, disabled and vulnerable adults in Rutland.  The trips could be to attend hospital, doctor, dentist and optician  appointments, hospital visits and, on occasion, visits to friends and relatives. All out of pocket expenses, including a generous mileage allowance, paid. The time devoted need be only as much or as little as you wish.  The extra resource will help us to meet a growing demand in our community.
