Location: St Gemma's Hospice, Moortown, Leeds

Do you enjoy meeting people? Can you help support our patients to access a variety of services including creative therapy activities, wellbeing, emotional support, appointments with specialist doctors and therapists? This role involves using your own vehicle to transport more independently mobile patients between their homes and the Hospice so that they can access these vital services. Travel expenses will be reimbursed.

St Gemma’s Hospice is an independent Leeds-based charity and one of the leading hospices in the UK, providing expert care and support for local people with life-limiting and terminal illnesses. We offer care to patients, families, and carers in the Hospice’s In-Patient Unit, through the St Gemma’s community team, and at our Out-Patients.

We have around 300 employees working across the main Hospice site in Moortown, Retail Hub in Bramley, a large chain of charity shops, and out in the community. We offer career opportunities both in our multi-disciplinary clinical team and in a wide range of non-clinical roles, all of which contribute towards local patient care. St Gemma’s Hospice has a team of approximately 800 volunteers, working in a variety of roles supporting departments throughout the organisation.
