We’re always looking to recruit into Merseyside and Cheshire Blood Bikes, so if you’re interested read on.

We have three main roles in the group – Riders, Controllers, and Fundraisers – and a volunteer can do one or more of these roles.  This month we’re focusing on the Controller role.

What does a Controller do for us ?

The Controller role is critical for any Blood Bikes group – you receive calls from our NHS clients and then relay the jobs to our rider community.  It’s a home based role and we’re looking for people who may have recently retired and are looking to give back by volunteering between 8am and 6pm during the week.  Our Controllers are able to make their own decisions about how much time they can give, with some doing full days, and others doing one morning or afternoon per week.  Please consider applying for this role.  Many thanks.

Providing free emergency transport to deliver blood, drugs, human tissues and medical supplies for the NHS, to help protect the health of the community.
