Give a little time and gain a lot by joining the incredible team at Nailsea and District Community Transport!
As a volunteer, you’ll be the driving force that helps keep our community connected, providing vital, friendly transport for people who truly need it to stay independent and engaged. You’ll not only make a genuine, tangible difference to the lives of your neighbours—offering a friendly face and a helping hand—but you’ll also meet great people, learn new skills, and feel the immense satisfaction of being a valued part of a service that makes Nailsea and the surrounding district a better place for everyone. Come on board; your journey with us will be as rewarding for you as it is essential for our passengers!
Vacancies for Volunteer Drivers
We welcome applications from drivers with an interest in helping the community. Using NDCT minibuses, volunteers take members to essential appointments, mainly within the North Somerset and Bristol area. The work is very varied, and the people who use our services appreciate the freedom and independence that it gives them. It is a very flexible way to volunteer as you do not have to provide a regular commitment and there is no pressure to do more work than you wish to.
