Transport volunteer - Scotland cat centre

Our vision for volunteering

Volunteering is and always will be at the heart of Cats Protection. It is joyful and inclusive. As a charity, working in partnership, together we transform the lives of cats, people and communities.

The difference you will make to cats and people


If you enjoy driving and would love to use those skills to help our cats, this could be the role for you. Our transport volunteers provide vital assistance to our teams and volunteer groups in the local area by transporting equipment, litter, food – and even cats! They have the essential role of connecting our network of volunteers, sites, vets and supporters.


Without the passionate and committed teams of volunteers across Cats Protection, we wouldn’t be able to help the thousands of cats and kittens each year that rely on us for help.


You can expect us to


· Make you feel welcome, included and respected in line with our values and behaviours


· Support you in having a positive and impactful experience at Cats Protection


· Cover agreed out-of-pocket expenses in line with our Expenses Policy


· Provide you with access to learning, development and engagement opportunities


What we need from you


You’ll be:


· Arranging and transporting equipment, litter and cat food


· Transporting cats to and from vets, foster homes and centres


· Transporting equipment to and from events


Time expectation


Our transport volunteers usually spend two to four hours per week in this role, which is flexible and can be shared by more than one volunteer if needed.
