My WRVS
You are here:
One in three older people find it difficult to get where they want to go, particularly if they are without a car or find the bus difficult. Transport is vital to helping older people stay independent at home and active in their local communities.
WRVS community transport helps older people get out and about.
WRVS touches the lives of older people all across Britain
“I’m doing the Duke of Edinburgh Award and wanted to gain some experience in the area that I want to work.”

Phyllis is normally looked after by Pod, and when he had a stay in hospital she knew they would need help – Volunteer Carole was able to offer them practical help at home.
