About this opportunity
It would involve picking members up from their homes around Uckfield in The Lions Bus, assisting them from their front door to the bus, helping them onto the bus via tail lift and ensuring they are safely seated and seat belts on. Walking aids are stored at rear of the bus. Then returning them to their homes and making sure they are safely inside before leaving them.
Full training will be given. This would be a shared roll and a driver would not be required every time there was a meeting. There is also another helper on the bus .
Driver needs to have D1 on licence and two years driving experience and will be driving the Lions Club Minibus.
DBS check might be required.
