Volunteer as a Driver – Hospice Waikato, Matamata
Volunteering as a driver with Hospice Waikato means more than just picking up and dropping off items. Every trip you make helps raise vital funds to support people in their final stage of life, providing comfort, dignity, and care during their last days with loved ones.
You’re not just moving furniture – you’re helping local families as they face life’s hardest goodbye.

Join our Matamata Hospice Shop team:

  • Pick up donated items from local homes and businesses, or collect items from the Hospice Shop to deliver elsewhere, making sure everything arrives safely and on time
  • Help carefully load and unload boxes and goods, treating every donation with respect because it supports families in need
  • Help build on Matamata’s proud tradition of community care, where everyone pitches in and no one gets left behind.

Requirements:

  • A current, valid New Zealand full driver’s licence
  • A clean and safe driving record
  • Comfortable driving in and around Matamata and nearby areas
  • Physically fit as the role involves lifting and moving items
  • Good communication skills and a friendly attitude
  • Willingness to work as part of a caring team
  • Basic knowledge of vehicle safety checks (or willingness to learn)

A Ministry of Justice background check is required for this role.

Time commitment:

  • Shifts are usually weekly and we ask that you commit to one shift per week.
