WELCOME TO CARE FARNHAM
Care Farnham is an established small charity (since 1986) , providing help to local residents, living within the Farnham Town boundary, who need lifts to doctors, hospital and other health-related appointments.
JOIN OUR TEAM
We are now providing a service which is not far below pre-pandemic levels: around 2000-2500 lifts each year to those who need them. If you are a car owner and can spare even as little as a couple of hours a month, please contact us to find out more about how you can help – and meet some really interesting characters. Your driving commitment will be entirely up to you: as much or as little and when it fits in with other commitments
Similarly, we would welcome new duty officers who schedule the trips: this is a few hours on one day each month, again to fit in with your other commitments and operating from your own home. If you are interested, we would love to hear from you.
CARE Farnham, it’s volunteer drivers and Duty Officers, by giving their time and using their vehicles for others, have proved to my wife and I that kindness, care and generosity still exist, most certainly, in Farnham.
When I had a knee replacement some years ago, a dear friend recommended CARE Farnham to take me to to my physio, doctor and hospital appointments as I did not have a car. I was so grateful for their assistance and have continued to use their services. Not only are the drivers so kind and caring, but also the Duty Officers in finding the drivers to take me. I have been a Duty Officer myself for several years and am happy to be able to help this wonderful organisation which we are so lucky to have in our area.
Many years ago my late husband was a CARE driver and then we became weekend Duty Officers together. So, I have known of their help for a long time and have been so grateful as, in recent years, I have begun using them myself. Everyone is so kind and caring, both the prompt, careful drivers and and the diligent Duty Officers. I have recommended CARE to so many people over the years.
