About the Volunteer Opportunity
Not all superheroes wear capes! It could be you helping registered members of Out & About in your community get to vital services such as medical appointments or essential shopping in the comfort of your own vehicle. Do you have what it takes to volunteer with them?
Volunteer drivers receive genuine out of pocket expenses such as fuel and refreshment expenses (as permitted by HMRC guidelines) but in addition receive immense satisfaction by giving a little something back to their local community.
Volunteers need to be over 21 years old and hold a full clean driving licence and have access to a vehicle that is taxed, MOTed and insured.
About the Organisation
Out and About Community Transport is a registered NI Charity based in the heart of Magherafelt. We have been providing low cost accessible rural transport services for over 20 years throughout the Magherafelt District utilizing a mix of accessible minibuses and volunteer car drivers.
We aim to provide those living in the Magherafelt District with a door to door transport solution so they can access local basic services like going to the Doctors, Health Appointments, Shopping, Bank, Post Office, Hairdressers etc.
Anyone wishing to use Out & About must be a member.

The main target groups are as follows:
The Elderly
