All of our drivers are qualified first aiders and we are presently engaging in dementia and Alzheimer’s awareness courses. The fleet of company vehicles are recognisable as each one is branded with a daisy symbol and the drivers are referred to as ‘daisies’.”

Driving Miss Daisy offers a unique franchise opportunity that can make a difference in the lives of vulnerable people who would otherwise be housebound.
Driving Miss Daisy franchise owners Nathalie from West Norfolk highlight the differences between their services and traditional taxis: “While our prices may be broadly similar, Driving Miss Daisy is a very different kind of service. If our customers would like us to go around the shops with them, or have a cup of tea and a natter in a café afterwards, then we will. The social aspect is just as important as getting from A to B.
