Food Bank Minibus Driver
The Dockland Settlements
The Dockland Settlements runs a regular food bank. We need volunteer drivers to help collect food supplies using our minibus. Drivers are needed for 2 hours on Tuesday and Thursday mornings (08:45-10:45) and for 90 minutes on Wednesday evenings (19:30-21:00) each week. You don't have to volunteer for all 3 shifts - if you can cover one or two of these shifts each week, that would be welcomed. You will need a full UK driving license and be over 21. A minibus (D1) license would be beneficial.

Although not essential, if you have a minibus category (D1 category) on your driving license, this would be a benefit. You will also need to be aged 21 or over for this role due to vehicle insurance restrictions. The role involves some loading and unloading of food supplies so you will need to be physically able to do this.
