Description

Transport for Sick Children is a unique volunteer driver scheme, set up to help children with a health need living in Greater Manchester to access essential health care .

Volunteer drivers, using their own cars, help by collecting a child with their carer and driving them to their appointments at various medical locations.

When the appointment or treatment is finished, the volunteer then takes the child and their carer back home.

It's as simple as that!

Postal address only, call for information

Families must be referred to our service by a health, social or education professional only - direct parent bookings are not accepted as referral criteria must be met.
One weeks notice is required to allow us to book a volunteer driver.
