Volunteer to help with community transport

Volunteering with a community transport group allows you to get involved with supporting people, having a real impact on people's daily lives.

The benefits of volunteering include:

• a boost to your mind and body: volunteering has been proven to improve your health and well-being by keeping you active and engaged
• helping build a real sense of community spirit
• the opportunity to give something back to the community
• a sense of reward from being a member of a valuable and appreciated team
• the chance to increase you local knowledge
• the opportunity to meet new and like-minded local people
• groups provide full training for every role

How much time do I need to volunteer?

The hours volunteers are expected to commit can be very flexible (for example, one or two hours a month).

Giving a little time can make a really positive difference to your local community.

How can I get involved?

Each group is run independently, so you should contact them directly to discuss opportunities. You can search for community transport groups on the West Berkshire Directory.

You can also find volunteering opportunities on the West Berkshire Volunteer Centre website.
