Volunteer with Us

We are always looking for volunteers - either to take calls and book drivers or for volunteer drivers.
We are a small charity and your support could make a huge difference.

If you are taking calls, you will be asked to work one shift in every 4 weeks. You will need a computer with internet access. During your shift, you simply have to make yourself available from 0900 until 1300. You will work from home and can carry on with your day as long as you can answer calls and assist our clients to find a driver.

Volunteer Drivers can work whenever they are free and we reimburse all petrol, parking and other expenses related to the trip. All we need from you is a well maintained and clean car, a smiling face and a kind and caring personality.


If you are interested in volunteering for LINK Oxted, please call 01883 713333 between 0900-1300 Monday to Friday Monday to Friday or email the Volunteer Manager click here.
