Get Involved
The Sherburn Visiting Scheme has been running for many years and over that time it has become an essential service for many of the local elderly residents. The scheme is becoming under increasing pressure due to the increased number of people using the service and the retirement of some of their longstanding drivers. The need for new drivers is vital for the service to continue. Please visit their website or contact the Visiting Scheme using the contact details above to inquire about volunteering your time.
