Emergency Response Volunteer (Inverness)

When there is a fire, flood or severe weather, we’re among the first to respond. From making a cup of tea to trekking through snow and sleet to deliver the essentials, we work with other organisations to do what’s needed straight away.

We'd like you to be able to:

Get to the Red Cross Office, Inverness IV2 5GH, within 30 minutes.

Ideally drive and have access to a vehicle although this is not essential. Drivers should have held a driving licence for at least 2 years which allows them to drive in the UK and have access to a vehicle.

Sign up to a 12 hour shift every two weeks, please note you may not be called out but we need volunteers available to respond if needs be.

Due to the nature of this role, applicants must undergo an Enhanced PVG (Protecting Vulnerable Groups) check.

Health and Safety Statement

We take an individual approach to ensuring your safety.

We may ask you to complete a simple risk assessment. We will also have a conversation with you to discuss any restrictions that may still be in place in your region and identify any adjustments you may need.

If you have any questions before applying, please contact us at volunteerrecruitment@redcross.org.uk
