Volunteer Shuttle Driver – St John Health Shuttle

The St John Health Shuttle is a lifeline for many in our community, offering a free transport service to help people attend essential medical and health-related appointments.

  • Reliability and punctuality - Ensuring clients arrive at their appointments on time is a key part of the role.
  • This role is more than just driving; it’s about connecting with people and supporting them during times when they need it most. If you’re looking for a way to give back to your community and enjoy meeting new people, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.
