Volunteer Driver
Our most requested service is our Transport Service.  This service is provided by volunteer drivers. The Transport Service would not be able to operate without the kindness and generosity of our drivers with their time.

The driver is the face of RCSG and the individual who interacts with our clients the most.

Cancer patients benefit greatly from the assistance of volunteer drivers. As a volunteer driver, you save patients from having to use public transport or plan their own transportation. For a lot of people, this is an essential service that helps them feel better and makes sure they can travel to and from the hospital in comfort while receiving cancer treatment.

As a volunteer driver, your primary responsibility is to transport service users from their residence to the hospital and back.

Because the length of treatment can vary and occasionally take longer than expected, you will need to be available for the entire day on the day of the trip.

One of our two vehicles designated for the Transport Service will be used by you. Sometimes drivers will be asked to utilize their own car when demand is high and a fuel allowance is then provided.
