About Opportunity

We are a small voluntary group supporting older people by bringing them to day centres and giving entertainment and company. We require a minibus driver (ages 25 – 68) with a D1 entitlement on the licence (most who passed driving test prior to 1997 will have this automatically). The MIDAS certificate is necessary but we will pay for this if the driver will give a reasonable commitment (6 months).
