💙Sometimes, the hardest part of the day is getting out the front door.

A coffee with a friend. A visit to family. A favourite hobby. A walk by the beach. A community group you've been meaning to get back to. These simple moments of connection can make a real difference.

At Driving Miss Daisy, we know our role is about so much more than transport. Our drivers offer a friendly face, a listening ear, and reliable support to help people stay connected to the people, places, and activities that bring them joy. Whether it's a regular outing, a social catch-up, or simply getting out of the house, we're proud to help make those moments possible because no one should have to face isolation alone.

This World Mental Health Day, let's check in on one another, make time for connection, and remember that sometimes the smallest outing can make the biggest difference. 💚💙🚙

Happy New Zealand Grandparents Day!

Whether Grandparents by blood or Grandparents by love, we celebrate these special people today 💙

For those that have Grandparents in their lives, visit them if you can and give them a big kiss and hug, or give them a call...tell them that you love them! 🥰

Driving Miss Daisy would like to wish all the Grandparents of New Zealand a truly wonderful day. We appreciate all the strength, guidance and love that you give.

Today we celebrate the International Day of Older Person

A time to celebrate the value of older people and acknowledge their contributions to our communities; in the work place, as volunteers, as caregivers and as whole people, with dreams, aspirations, wisdom and experience.

International Day of the Older Persons was observed for the first time in 1991 so has been running for over 30 years. The purpose of this day is to raise awareness about the issues affecting older persons. It also provides an opportunity to take steps to demonstrate respect. Older people are caretakers and custodians of traditions and so much knowledge and information are held within their experiences and memory.

Tomorrow is International Coffee Day! ☕️

Let’s go grab a coffee! Or better yet, let us take you to grab a coffee with friends 💛

Did you know you can even share the ride? We can pick you up and collect your friends on the way, so you can enjoy the journey together as much as the coffee.

Because good coffee is even better when it’s shared 🚗✨

Daffodil Day 28th of August 2026 💛 1 in 3 Kiwis will receive a cancer diagnosis in their lifetimes.

Each day 81 Kiwis hear the words, “You have cancer.” Daffodil Day is a chance to show your friends and family affected by cancer they’re not alone. Daffodil Day is about donating in order to protect future generations of New Zealanders by helping to fund world-leading cancer research and vital prevention programmes.

Make a difference this Daffodil Day 🌼

Today is World Senior Citizens Day, a day that recognises and appreciates senior citizens for all their accomplishments and contributions to the community we live in today. Senior citizens are valued members of society, who have plenty of kind wisdom and experience to share with the younger generation.

They are often overlooked and undermined because of their fragile state, but they have played a huge role in history, either in our communities, the workforce, or in our daily households. World Senior Citizens Day is a great opportunity to show them love and plenty of kindness in celebrating their golden age and their presence in our lives.
