We have a fantastic opportunity for a Volunteer Car Driver to join our team based in Littlehampton.

Are you ready to make a meaningful impact in your community? Join us as a Patient Transport Volunteer Driver and become a vital part of our Patient Transport Service in your local area. Your commitment will ensure that vulnerable patients can access essential medical appointments on time with ease and comfort.

Our volunteer team is a diverse blend of individuals united by a shared desire to make a positive difference in their communities.

As a volunteer, you'll be the friendly face that patients rely on during their journey to appointments. Your role is simple yet profoundly impactful: providing safe and reliable transportation, while offering reassurance and support during a challenging time in their lives.

No prior experience is necessary - just bring your caring attitude, a 4-5 door car, and some spare time. Whether you're available from the crack of dawn or prefer flexible hours that fit around your schedule, every contribution counts.

By volunteering, you will experience the fulfilment of giving back to your community and supporting the NHS. Join our growing team of compassionate volunteers who are dedicated to enhancing patient care and making a real difference in people's lives.

• Be a part of our excellent EMED Volunteer Team
• Comprehensive induction, training, and ongoing support
• Opportunities to connect with new people

Other duties include:

• Drive patients to non-emergency appointments
• Assist individuals in accessing vital hospital services
• Coordinate with our dispatch teams for seamless operations
• Foster positive relationships within the community
• Enjoy the autonomy of volunteering independently while knowing you have the backing of a supportive team

What we're looking for:

• A valid driving licence with no more than 6 penalty points
• A friendly and empathetic demeanour
• Access to a 4-door (minimum) car
• Alignment with our organization's values
• Basic IT skills (like the use of a smartphone)

Please note that this role will be subject to several regulatory pre-employment checks, and you will be asked to provide details of your full employment history should you be invited to an interview. Your HMRC record, available to download from the Government Gateway, may help you in preparing this information when required.
