Volunteer for NVCS

Our car scheme relies on a team of volunteer drivers to transport and assist passengers to get to their medical and well-being appointments.

We are always looking for more volunteer drivers in all areas across Northampton (NN1-NN5) and are happy to speak to anyone who is interested in the role.

Volunteers get a huge amount out of helping others and are able to give back to their local community. The role is flexible and can fit around other commitments with volunteering from at least half -a-day to five days a week.

The scheme books journeys Monday to Friday with drivers providing transport to medical appointments for passengers eligible for the car scheme, who have no access to their own vehicle, are unable to drive or unable to use public transport.

Drivers can use their own cars or use the wheelchair accessible vehicle (WAV car) provided by NVCS. The journeys will usually start within the drivers’ local community area. Drivers will be supported by, and accountable to, the Car Scheme Coordinators.

If you want to volunteer your time to help Monday- Friday, live in Northampton and have valid driving licence, please see the role here.
