Wheels of Hope Driver: CCS’s Wheels of Hope program helps people who can’t get to their cancer treatment appointments, providing trips when people need us most. Wheels of Hope drivers not only provide a means for clients to get to their critical cancer treatments, but offer a safe, supportive ride along the way.

WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING As a Wheels of Hope driver, you will be responsible for: • Responding to requests for client rides from the Transportation Coordinator, ideally via email, and wherever possible being flexible with your schedule as busy days/times/periods change • Confirm travel arrangements with client(s) by phone • Offer minimal assistance to get clients in and out of the car (no lifting permitted) • Put client safety first by following safe driving procedures and keeping your license and insurance details updated • Adhere to all CCS policies, procedures, standards and guidelines including client confidentiality, role boundaries and our 100% smoke free policy.  Please visit the Volunteer signup page on our website (www.cancervolunteer.ca) or email us at volunteer@cancer.ca .
