Are you an experienced driver who can give an hour or more a week? Having a driver’s licence means better access to employment, education, training and social activities but not everyone in our community has a vehicle or a licensed family member who can mentor them for the required 120 hours of driving time. As a driver mentor you will have a real life-changing impact on the people you mentor. We need volunteers in Nowra, the Bay & Basin and Ulladulla who are fully licensed, with a good driving history, and available for a minimum of one hour per week to help learners gain on-road experience in different conditions. BCR Communities vehicles are supplied for the mentoring sessions. To find out more, phone 1300 222 748, email info@BCRcommunities.com or visit BCRcommunities.com
