Can a duty holder be moved against their will to another office to cover absence?

Not if you make it a pain for them to do so.
You can start on your start time at your usual office then the business must provide transport to the new office and must ensure you can travel back in time for your finish time at your home office.
You’re not obliged to use your own car especially without the correct insurance

Yes operational needs.
If you stick to what " Credit Shampoo" has described then they might have a rethink on how inconvenient it has become for them to transfer you to another office.

The agreement says reserves and volunteers first.
Why is a duty holder being sent?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
