Meals On Wheels Volunteers Required
Hi Everyone,
We are currently looking for Meals on Wheels volunteers to help us deliver hot healthy meals to people in the community who cannot cook or prepare their own meals. By doing so, you will be supporting amongst the most vulnerable in our community.
As a volunteer with New Zealand Red Cross you will be part of a family. We take pride in our volunteers and are involved in actively supporting and empowering our volunteers.
As a Meals on Wheels Volunteer Driver you will be directly involved in supporting vulnerable members of our community in Hamilton. Your role will be to pick up the hot meals prepared at the Waikato Hospital before dropping the meals off along a pre-determined route in a specific Hamilton suburb.
We are looking for someone with a warm smile and a friendly attitude who has a clean drivers license and access to a vehicle.
You can either volunteer regularly (weekly, fortnightly or monthly) or express interest in being a casual or back up driver (if one of our regulars cannot make it).
If you are interested, please send an email at waikato@redcross.org.nz or submit an online application through our website.
