Travel details

Public Collections Volunteers will be based at various busy locations, including supermarkets, racecourses, and other public venues across the region. Specific locations will be confirmed upon sign-up, and volunteers can choose shifts based on availability.

Travel details will vary depending on the collection site. Volunteers are responsible for arranging their own transport, but public transport options are often available near collection points.
