Volunteer as a Controller
Our controllers take incoming calls from hospitals, clinic or laboratories around the Merseyside and Cheshire patch and then allocate jobs to the riders that are on duty that day. The controller, working from home, needs to choose the most suitable rider based on the location of the job and then monitor progress of the job through to completion and the rider returning home safely. The equipment required to do the controller job are a telephone and a laptop/tablet.
The biggest demand for a blood bike controller from our NHS colleagues is during the working day Monday to Friday. So, if you have time to volunteer for us during those times, we’d be very keen to hear from you. We also want people who can act as a controller for us outside of the normal working day hours and at weekends. Ideally, we like our members to be able to volunteer some of their time on at least one day per week.
