If you enjoy being in an office environment, are compassionate and like meeting people then this could be the role for you.
Thanks to volunteers like you we can provide people in your local community with wheelchairs and other mobility equipment to help them through a crisis. This vital service enables people to maintain their independence and quality of life after an illness or injury. Whether it is to help take a relative out, or take a child to school, it makes a difficult and distressing time a little bit easier. Spread the power of kindness with us and help make sure that everyone who needs one can get a wheelchair:
- Providing great customer service issuing wheelchairs/equipment and receiving returns.
- Using a computer-based stock control system.
- Demonstrating safe use of the equipment.
- Receiving payments / donations.
- Dealing with enquiries from people wanting to hire/loan a wheelchair or other equipment (online, phone and in person).
