Driver (SP)

Care in Shepperton is looking for friendly and reliable volunteer drivers to help elderly or unwell TW17 residents get to medical appointments: Hospitals, Health Centres, Opticians, Dentists, etc.

Most journeys take place within a 5-mile radius of Shepperton, including Ashford and St Peter’s Hospitals. You can choose to be a duty driver one day per month or offer help occasionally as a back-up driver.

This is a flexible, rewarding way to support your local community — and brighten someone’s day with a simple lift.
