Are you an expert at riding the bus? Want to help other people learn how?
Then you should be a BUS BUDDY!
Ride along with someone and teach them how to use the public transport. Learning how to ride the bus helps people become more independent.
If you have spare time, a friendly attitude and know how to plan and take bus trips, please give us a call.
We provide training, support and a monthly bus pass to Bus Buddy volunteers. You'll be matched with someone in your community who needs your help.
