Okiwi Trust Volunteer Drivers are available to take you to appointments in Eastbourne, The Hutt Valley and Wellington.
Drivers are also happy to take older residents who need to shop locally or in The Hutt. There are approximately 65 older Eastbourne residents already using our service, and the numbers are increasing all the time.
The Drivers Service will try to accommodate all reasonable requests for transport to and from a destination. Drivers give of their time freely with Okiwi Trust reimbursing the running cost of their vehicles, with petrol vouchers.
If you use the service it would be appreciated if a small donation was received to enable Okiwi Trust to expand on services for the older residents.
Okiwi Trust also offers social outings to films, and viewing of videos locally in winter.
When you request a Volunteer Driver to take you to appointments or some destination please contact the Volunteer Driver Coordinator with as much notice as possible.
