Volunteer support is vital to assist in changing these youths lives - one licence at a time

The Blue Light Youth Driver Navigator programme is a Community Driver Education & Licensing programme that helps young people aged 16 to 20 without the finances or adult support required to gain their full NZ Drivers licence.

All you need to be a volunteer is:

•1 to 2 hours per week

•A full, clean driver’s licence

We provide modern, safe vehicles and the systems to take young people from Learner to Full Licence. Become part of the transforming change in their lives! Visit www.bluelight.co.nz @ BLDYN
