Driver - Orewa

Do you enjoy driving and connecting with others in your community? We’re looking for a compassionate and dependable female volunteer based in the Orewa area to support one of our members with transport to local shops and appointments. This role is ad-hoc and flexible as our member will reach out in advance to check your availability. You'd be a friendly and familiar face while helping make everyday tasks a little easier. If you have a bit of spare time, a valid driver’s license and a kind heart, I'd love to hear from you. Training is provided. About Blind Low Vision NZ: Every day, an average of nine New Zealanders turn to Blind Low Vision NZ for support with vision loss. We provide emotional and practical support, so that people who are blind, deafblind or have low vision can keep working and living independently. We meet people in their homes or at their local Blind Low Vision NZ office to collectively make this happen. We also advocate for accessible and inclusive communities. We believe people with vision loss deserve equal access to public spaces, information and careers. This is made possible through education and removing barriers. At Blind Low Vision NZ we believe no goal is too big or small. https://blindlowvision.org.nz/
