Hi Guys!
I have just been offered a job and now need to source a support driver as I am registered blind and can not drive myself. I currently receive help with travel to work through Access to Work but my new role incorporates driving to and from clients within the working day and so a support driver would be more relevant.
I am struggling finding where to get one, does anyone have any suggestions? I have to provide quotes etc and all I get on Google is HGV and courier driving jobs!
Many thanks,
Jaki
