It's National Cat Day - and we know that sometimes our four-legged companions need a little help getting to their appointments too.🐾

Driving Miss Daisy New Forest helps clients and their cats travel safely and comfortably to the vet, with a companion driver providing practical support and reassurance along the way.

Happy National Cat Day to all the much-loved cats in our community!

💛Community Connections That Matter💛

Sometimes, the simplest outings create the most meaningful moments!

Recently, we had the pleasure of taking some local residents to visit the wonderful team at the RNLI, giving them the opportunity to say a heartfelt THANK YOU for the incredible work they do.

It was a lovely reminder of just how important community connections are and how much it means to bring people together.

At Driving Miss Daisy New Forest, we believe every journey is about more than getting from A to B. It's about creating opportunities, supporting independence and helping people stay connected to their local community. 💙

A huge thank you to our amazing RNLI volunteers for everything they do to keep us safe at sea!

As the days become shorter and the weather gets colder, everyday journeys can start to feel a little more difficult.

Driving Miss Daisy New Forest can help with shopping trips, medical appointments, visits to friends and family, or simply getting out of the house for a change of scenery.

Our companion-led service provides more than transport. We offer a helping hand, a friendly face and reassuring support throughout the journey,

Planning ahead can make winter feel a little easier.

Meet Jean and Jack - a wonderful couple in their early 90s who will celebrate 70 years of marriage next year. 💙

We accompany them to Southampton General each month for Jack's eye appointments, and our journeys together are full of stories and conversation.

Jean is a force to be reckoned with: positive, cheerful and full of memories. She told Sam about dancing at the Blackpool Tower Ballroom when she was young, and how her daughter took her back there last year to dance once more.
Jack's RAF career took them overseas, including to Singapore, where Sam also lived. During their chat, they discovered they had lived in two of the very same locations. What a small world!

Getting to know the people we accompany is such a lovely part of what we do. Each journey is an opportunity to listen, share memories and build a familiar, reassuring friendship.

A little Thursday feel-good moment! 💛

There's nothing quite like receiving lovely feedback from the families we support.

This heartfelt testimonial reminds us why we do what we do. It's about so much more than getting from A to B. It's about building relationships, offering companionship, and helping people maintain their independence and enjoy what matters to them.

For Sam and the team at Driving Miss Daisy New Forest, becoming a trusted part of someone's weekly routine is something truly special.

A huge thank you to this lovely family for their kind words and for trusting us to be par of their journey. 💙🌼

October sunshine, sea air and ice-creams! 🍦

Last Thursday, we enjoyed a trip to the seafront with one of our clients, sharing ice-creams in the sunshine and hardly believing it was October.

Sometimes, it's the simple pleasures that make an outing special: a change of scenery, a good chat and someone to enjoy it all with. 💙

On World Mental Health Day, we're reminded that connection and companionship can make a meaningful difference to our wellbeing.

At Driving Miss Daisy New Forest every journey is companion-led. We take the time to listen, offer support and help our clients stay connected to the people, places and activities that matter to them.

Sometimes, a little company can make a big difference.

The New Forest has some extra residents at this time of year! 🐖
It's pannage season, when local commoners turn out their pigs to forage for fallen acorns. It's a lovely Forest tradition with a practical purpose: acorns can be harmful to ponies and cattle.

If you're lucky enough to see the piggies on an outing, enjoy watching them from a distance and please don't feed or touch them.

A gentle drive through the Forest, perhaps with a stop for coffee, can be a wonderful way to enjoy what's happening locally. Our companion drivers can help make the whole outing feel comfortable and unhurried.
