Overview
Peninsula Transport Assist NEEDS YOUR HELP so we can assist those in our community who can't get out due to illness or circumstance. PTA clients are often socially isolated and very much appreciate the company of our volunteer drivers.
The team of PTA volunteers are mostly retirees and many receive the JobSeeker allowance. The team loves that their time given is flexible, allowing them to pursue other interests.
Responsibilities
* Volunteer drivers use their own cars to mainly take people to medical appointments, but sometimes for shopping, to attend exercise classes, or just for social connection.
* Some clients only need to be driven locally, but some will need to travel distances. Some volunteer drivers only wish to drive locally, but others are happy with the distance drives.
* Volunteers are never asked to do anything they are not comfortable with.
Benefits
* Drivers are offered some reimbursement to cover petrol costs (currently 50 cents/km, but with an increase pending).
