Hi Everyone

Giving this a share for
Caithness Rural Transport
Looking for some new volunteers , see details below .

🚐 COULD YOU DRIVE THE DIFFERENCE? ❤️

Caithness Rural Transport is looking for new volunteers to join our fantastic team!

Every day, our wheelchair-accessible vehicles help people across Caithness get to hospital and medical appointments, go shopping, visit friends and family, attend social activities and simply get out and about.

For many of our passengers, our service isn’t just transport - it’s independence, connection and the ability to keep doing the things that matter to them.

And behind so many of those journeys is one very important person…

A VOLUNTEER DRIVER. 🚐❤️

We’re looking for people of all ages who could spare some time to help others in their community.

You don’t need to be retired. You don’t need to volunteer every week. You don’t even need to have loads of spare time.

Maybe you could help one morning a week.
Maybe one afternoon a fortnight.
Maybe occasionally when you’re free.
Maybe you could help cover holidays or when other volunteers are unavailable.

Every journey makes a difference.

❤️ Full support and training provided
♿ Drive our wheelchair-accessible vehicles
⏰ Flexible volunteering around your availability
🤝 Meet people and become part of our amazing team
🚐 Help people stay independent and connected
❤️ Know that the time you give genuinely matters

You might be retired, working part-time, self-employed, a parent with some spare time during the day, or simply someone who wants to give something back.

There really is no “typical” volunteer.

You don’t just drive our passengers.

You help them live their lives. ❤️

Could you spare a few hours and Drive the Difference?

Get in touch with Caithness Rural Transport to find out more:
01955 605588
[email protected]

A few hours from you could mean a whole lot more to someone else.
