Who it is for?

Driving Miss Daisy offers a safe, friendly and reliable driving and companion service in the Malmesbury/North Chippenham and surrounding areas for anyone who is unable to drive but wishes to remain independent. Whether you're young, older, vulnerable or just fancy a bit of company on your journey or outing.
Mobility is no barrier - wheelchair users can be transported safely in their wheelchair so no need to try to transfer to a car seat. 
We provide ourselves on being 'family when family can't be there' which goes beyond just driving. For family members living away from their loved one, we can provide the local contact, liaising with healthcare professionals, accompanying to appointments (and writing a record of it) and making sure that their loved one has what they need to keep living independently.

Where it is available?

What it costs:

We are considered to be affordable and extremely cost effective.
The costs are time-based and relate to time in the car and time spent with the client (either companionship or waiting).
If you can provides details of where you want to go, what assistance you require and if you need our companionship we can pretty quickly provide a quote.
Payment can be made on the day using a card, cash or cheque or can be invoiced after (either to the client or to a family member or organisation) for payment later.
