Transport

Whilst it is advantageous for our Carers to be able to drive, it’s not necessary to have your own car. The ability to drive offers flexibility on a number of levels; it gives us greater flexibility in the care packages that we can offer you. If you’d like to work in a more remote, rural placement, then that is more feasible if you can drive and have a car. It also gives you the flexibility to get out and about with your customer if their condition allows. If the customer still has a car, we often suggest that our Carer be added to the family insurance policy.

We’ll get you from A to B

We try to take the worry out of transport for our Carers; if you don’t drive then we will arrange for you to be collected from the nearest train or bus station when you come to Alcester for the induction week training.

We also pay for your transport to care packages; so if you live in London but choose to work on a care package in Manchester, you won’t have to pay for your arrival ticket. Should we request you leave that package, then again we will pay for your transport.
