What you will be doing

Kendall and Wall is a Lichfield-based charity taking elderly and infirm local residents on day trips to local venues e.g. garden centres, restaurants, canal boat trips and many more using our small fleet of minibuses. Drivers should have a clean driving license with a D1 category on their license. Drivers are required to provide their services once or twice a week. They should be mobile enough to tether wheelchairs to the floor of a minibus using the shackles provided. They will be required to manoeuvre wheelchairs on and off minibuses using the tail lift on each bus and, on occasion, to push wheelchairs around garden centres and other similar venues.
