VOLUNTEER TO BE A DRIVER MENTOR
Are you ready to change a life?
Are you an experienced driver with a little time to give? By volunteering just an hour or more a week, you can make a life-changing difference to a young person in your community.
For many young people, getting a driver’s licence is the key to greater independence, employment opportunities, and access to education and social activities. However, not everyone has a vehicle or a licensed family member who can help them complete the 120 hours of supervised driving required to get their P-plates. That’s where you come in!
What does a Driver Mentor do?
As a volunteer Driver Mentor, you’ll provide supervised driving practice to young learners who have already received professional driving lessons. You’ll help them gain the on-road experience they need in different traffic conditions, improving their confidence and preparing them for their driving test.
-
Where? We need volunteers in Nowra, the Bay & Basin, Sussex Inlet and Ulladulla.
-
Who can volunteer? Anyone with a full licence, a good driving record, and a passion for helping others.
-
Time commitment? Just one hour per week (or more if you can!).
-
Do I need my own car? No! BCR Communities provides fully insured vehicles for all mentoring sessions.
Why Volunteer?
Make a real impact – Help a young person gain independence and access new opportunities.
Give back to your community – Support local learners who may not have anyone else to help.
No special qualifications needed – Just a safe driving record and a willingness to help.
We provide the car, training, and support – You just provide your time and encouragement!
