Community Transport East Renfrewshire
About the role
Volunteers use own vehicles to take patients to and from medical appointments.
Commitment: Volunteers let the organisation know availability i.e., which day/days they wish to do and what times.
Volunteers can also let the organisation know what hospitals they are happy to take patients to and what hospitals they would not like to go to. Drivers pick up no earlier than 8.45am and finish no later than 5.30pm. Normally it is one patient per driver per car.
About The Community Transport:
