After a two-year hiatus due to COVID, Safe Ride Home Sudbury has started up the service again as of Nov. 25.
To prevent impaired driving, clients are driven home in their own vehicle by a team of volunteers.
The service will be provided every Friday and Saturday from now until New Year’s Eve with the exception of Christmas weekend subject to the availability of volunteer teams. It is strongly recommended that callers do have a backup plan in place.
Donations are gratefully accepted.

Volunteers are still needed and can apply online.
SRHS participates in the Festive RIDE Program to support the efforts of its long-standing community partner, the Greater Sudbury Police Service.
“Our service is just one of many options,” said Safe Ride Home Sudbury president Lesli Green. “Plan ahead for a designated driver, call a friend, call a cab, use public transit or stay over.
Whatever it takes, don’t drive impaired!”
