Volunteer Driver’s Mate for SCRATCH

About this opportunity

As a Driver’s Mate, you’ll support our Furnish to Flourish project, helping deliver furniture packs to individuals and families experiencing hardship.

This is a practical, hands-on role involving lifting and moving furniture, so you’ll need to be reasonably physically fit. We’re looking for volunteers who are reliable, punctual, and enjoy working as part of a team.

Whether you can give as little as 5 hours or up to 30 hours per week, you’ll receive a warm welcome, tailored support, and a range of other volunteer benefits.

We are committed to creating an inclusive and diverse volunteering environment, where everyone is valued and supported throughout their volunteering journey.
