Volunteer Drivers Needed for Local Sensory Charity

Sensory Services by Sight for Surrey is in desperate need of volunteer drivers in the Horley and Reigate areas to drive people to
their offices in Fetcham where they can visit their Resource Centre to find specialist equipment to help them manage their sight and hearing loss or meet with one of their Tech Experts for one-toone support to manage their mobile phones or IT equipment.

The offices contain a fully stocked Resource Centre, brimming with devices and gadgets to help people manage their sight and hearing loss including magnifiers, task lamps, bump-on stickers, vibrating and flashing doorbells and smoke alarms,
large button telephones, TV listening devices and much more!

In addition, they need drivers to transport people in Horley and Reigate to their monthly Meet Up Catch Up at Oxted Library. The informal get-togethers take place every 2nd Wednesday of the month between 10:00am and 12:00pm and are designed to bring the local hearing and sight loss community together and help reduce social isolation that many people who are Deaf, hard of hearing, blind, partially sighted and deafblind can experience.
Volunteer driving is the perfect volunteer role for those looking for a monthly or more ad hoc commitment. A full induction is given and
drivers will be reimbursed for their mileage at 45p per mile.

Sensory Services by Sight for Surrey is a charity which supports and enables people who are Deaf, hard of hearing, blind, partially sighted and deafblind to lead full and independent lives and was set up in 1922.
