Delivery driver will carry out an independent check of shopping against lists prior to loading. The delivery driver will be present during the exchange of monies between delivery helper and customer. Delivery drivers will consider fuel economy when driving and offer suggestions for more efficient routes, if appropriate.
Organisation aims and objectives
Our aim is to support older people to live independently at home. Our preventative services address the difficulty older people face getting their weekly grocery shopping, doing jobs around the house and the growing isolation that comes with failing health. We also aim to provide a wide range of supported volunteering opportunities for people of all ages and ability and these include shopper, driver, delivery assistant and office assistant.
