Drive Once a Month – Deliver Companionship That Lasts

Re-engage hosts monthly Sunday tea parties that bring joy and friendship to older people in the community. We’re looking for friendly volunteer drivers in and around Staines, Ashford, and especially Egham, to transport guests to and from a local host’s home for an afternoon of tea, cake, and conversation. You’ll drive the same older guest each month, help them to and from the car, and join a small group for a rotating tea party at a different location. You’ll also make a quick call to your guest before each event and confirm numbers with the group coordinator so the host can prepare.

Volunteers are needed as soon as possible. We ask for a commitment of around 3–4 hours one Sunday afternoon per month. You’ll need a full driving licence, valid insurance, access to a car, and to be happy to undergo a DBS check and provide two references.

What skills do I need?

What we look for: Friendly, caring drivers who enjoy chatting with older people and can offer a few hours of reliable support each month.

Safe driving, good communication, punctuality, patience, enjoyment of social settings, commitment to regular monthly volunteering
