Yes, The Canny Lass Company vehicle is wheelchair accessible and equipped to safely transport individuals with disabilities and special needs.
Well behaved dogs are more than welcome, please just let me know beforehand when you book.
The Canny Lass Company operates from Birtley, Co. Durham.
If I have availability for your booking request, I will do my best to accommodate you.
I have no limits or restrictions to where my clients are based.
Please just bear in mind that as part of my costing template, I charge a set mileage fee to cover my fuel costs.
Therefore the further away you are, the more the mileage costs for your booking.
That's not an issue., you don't need to be. We also understand that not all disabilities are visible, so everyone is welcome.
I was a Firefighter for 20 years, so have a lot of experience dealing with people from all walks of life, emergencies and the unexpected.
I am First Aid At Work qualified, an ex response driver, trained in the safe use of wheelchair accessible vehicles and a Dementia Friend.
Personally, I have been (and still am) a carer for my Dad, who has Lewy Body Dementia. He also uses a wheelchair as has severe arthritis.
I am also a personal assistant at the moment and have experience of assisting people with various disabilities and conditions.
Companionship pricing is £25 per hour plus mileage costs of 50p per mile.
The cost is for me and my vehicle, therefore more than one person can share this and split the cost, as long as I can fit you safely and legally into my vehicle. Great for friends/family to share a custom and accompanied day out!
Please note, as I have a vehicle to run, insurances to pay for, various other operating costs, I feel my pricing is very competitive.
Transportation pricing will be calculated on an individual basis, due to mileage, time and service provided.
Absolutely! If you want to bring a friend, family member or carer and I can carry them in the vehicle legally and safely, they're coming!
Yes I am. I have an enhanced DBS certificate.
