HOW YOU CAN HELP


VOLUNTEER

Padstow and District Community Transport welcomes volunteers. In particular, we are always seeking volunteer drivers, but if driving is not for you we welcome anyone who would be interested in acting as a chaperone on the Minibus, offering administration support, updating social media or helping maintain the Minibus. No formal qualifications or prior experience are required and we welcome volunteers from all backgrounds who have an enthusiasm to engage with the users of the Minibus - elderly and vulnerable members of the community, school groups, sporting clubs etc.

Your commitment is as little or as much time you can spare. All volunteers are required to complete an application form to include references and a DBS certificate (processed by PDCT).

Volunteer drivers must:

- be 25 years of age and have held a driving licence for two years.
- consent to a driving licence check.
- declare any health issues that may prevent them from driving.

PDCT offers:

- familiarisation to operate and drive the minibus.
- support to ensure volunteers feel confident driving.

Please register your interest via the contact form. We look forward to hearing from you.

Here is some feedback from our drivers:

  • “I didn’t realise how much satisfaction I would get from driving the Minibus. Providing transport for the elderly and vulnerable in our community is so rewarding. In so many cases it provides people with their only form of entertainment, fun and communication with others and the appreciation they show is heart warming. Please support this important and vital service”
