Why are we here?
Volunteer Centre West Berkshire provides information, advice and guidance
about voluntary opportunities in Newbury and across West Berkshire. In addition to our
role as a volunteer recruitment agency
for local organisations who need volunteer help, we also undertake
direct services for the elderly and infirm.
The Volunteer Car and Driver Scheme
takes people who are unable to use public transport to appointments of
all kinds, for which a voluntary donation is sought based on mileage.
The Newbury Handybus Scheme operates a
small fleet of specially adapted vehicles that takes groups of people on
regular shopping trips and other excursions.
Newbury Shopmobility provides manual
and electric wheelchairs and scooters to enable people with permanent or
temporary mobility problems to go about their business in Newbury with
complete independence.
