Description
ADA-Alcohol & Drugs Action have opportunities for Volunteer Mini Bus Drivers to support people who require this service in their recovery journey.
Our Activity group helps people trying to get away from problematic drug use, who want to meet others on a similar journey and want to do leisure activities on a Friday afternoon. We require an enthusiastic, motivated individual to drive a minibus and assist our Activity Group by driving one Friday afternoon per month.
