Santa Sleigh Tow Driver
The Rotary Club of Hemel Hempstead
A driver is required to tow the Rotary Santa Sleigh during the 5 weeks leading up to Xmas.
We have a team of drivers who take it in turns to tow the Rotary Santa sleigh around pre-defined routes in the Hemel Hempstead area. Each driver does around 3-4 routes in total depending on their availability. But we have recently lost some drivers due to health and other reasons and have a need for new people to replace them. The person we are looking for will have their own car with a towbar and will be comfortable with towing the equivalent of a large trailer, at walking speed, around a route of up to 3 miles on a few evenings during the Xmas period.
Driving (must have full driving license)
UK Driving Licence
The volunteer needs to have some experience with towing a trailer/caravan and a towbar fitted to their car.
The volunteer will bring joy to the children who look forward to seeing Santa come down their street and have their picture taken with him. In addition, there are presentation evenings which they will be invited to in January and March where the funds raised are distributed to about 50 local charities. Last year, over £17000 was distributed to local charities. See our website for more details: https://www.hemelsantasleigh.co.uk
For evening routes, the time commitment required is around 3 hours between 5-8pm. Normally, a driver will do around 3-4 evenings in total during the period 22nd Nov - 23rd Dec. And the volunteer driver can decide when they do this from the vacant slots. There is also the opportunity to take the sleigh to/from 'static' events which occur during the day and require a smaller time commitment. Also subject the volunteer's availability.
