Join our supported transportation volunteer team at the Sea to Sky Better at Home Program!  

Do you enjoy the company of seniors? Do you have good listening and communication skills?  Do you have a few hours a month to help? If so, help us build an inclusive and supportive community for seniors by providing transportation to their medical appointments.  

We currently need supported transportation volunteers in Squamish, Whistler, and Pemberton. 

About This Role 

When a senior in Squamish, Whistler, or Pemberton has limited transportation options and needs help getting to and from a medical appointment, we call upon our awesome roster of volunteers to help the senior make it to their appointment. Currently, we need to grow our roster to be able to respond to the requests that are coming in.  

In this volunteer role, you would pick up the senior, assist them in getting to their medical appointment, and pick them up after the appointment to take them home. Some medical appointments happen within your community. However, an honorarium is offered if the medical appointment is outside of the community.  

Our volunteers can accept or decline requests based on their availability; you are always free to say no! 

We are looking for volunteers in the Squamish, Whistler, and Pemberton areas who have good working vehicles and safe driving records. We offer an honorarium for those who drive seniors outside of the community.   

We require a safe driving abstract and a minimum of $2m liability insurance for your vehicle.

• Hit the respond button!

• Complete a criminal record check – vulnerable sector. This can be completed with us. 
• Sign a volunteer waiver form.  
• Complete an orientation process.
