Are you passionate about making a difference in communities across Glasgow? South West Community Transport is seeking a friendly, flexible and experienced driver to join our team and help us to deliver our mission and achieve our aims.
Mission Statement
We fundraise to provide safe, affordable and wheelchair-accessible transport, with skilled and friendly drivers, to remove barriers and help people attend groups and healthcare services that support them on the road to better health and wellbeing
Our Vision
To unite communities by providing safe, affordable and wheelchair-accessible transport to groups, healthcare services and organisations vital to people's health and wellbeing.
South West Community Transport is a Scottish charity that supports organisations and charities in Glasgow and surrounding areas. The groups are highly varied, including specialist schools, parent and toddler groups, youth groups, elderly support organisations, sports groups and charities helping those with physical and/or mental health challenges and those fighting addictions.
We also provide a Patient Transport service which allows hundreds of individuals, with no access to a car and unable to use public transport (but not eligible for NHS ambulance support) to reach their vital healthcare appointments safely to, e.g. the Beatson Cancer Centre, Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, New Victoria Hospital, health centres and clinics. We support a diverse range of people (including older, disabled, neurodiverse people from different communities which include ethnic communities; some of which are facing Dementia or Alzheimer challenges).
