Driver Mentor - Mirrabooka

We are seeking patient and supportive volunteers to join our Driver Mentor Program in Mirrabooka. This rewarding program helps learner drivers from multicultural backgrounds gain the supervised driving practice required to complete the 50 hours needed for their practical driving assessment.

Many participants have limited opportunities to practice driving or limited English, making the support of a volunteer mentor invaluable.

As a Driver Mentor, you will:

• Supervise learner drivers during practice sessions in a purpose-fitted program vehicle.
• Help participants build safe driving skills, confidence and road awareness.
• Encourage and support learners as they work towards obtaining their driver's licence.
• Build positive, respectful relationships that empower participants to achieve greater independence.

A purpose-fitted vehicle is provided and based in Mirrabooka, and full training, orientation and ongoing support are available.

This is a rewarding opportunity to share a practical life skill that can open doors to employment, education and greater independence. By volunteering as a Driver Mentor, you'll make a lasting difference in someone's life while helping build a stronger and more connected community.

If you enjoy driving, have had your licence for a minimum of 4 years with a good driving record, are a patient communicator, and would like to help others achieve an important milestone, we'd love to hear from you.
