A current driver’s license and a reliable fully registered and insured motor vehicle is essential. The motor vehicle must be suitable for elderly people to access.
The role involves accompanying our clients to integrate within our local community. This may be accompanying them to activities such as walking, bingo, shopping, bill paying and medical appointments, if assistance is needed. It may be just taking them for a drive so they can get out of the house, or visiting in a clients home to do jigsaws, potter in the garden or just have a coffee and a chat.
