In Australia, 4.4 million people live with a disability, it is estimated that 80-85% have an invisible disability.

What is a hidden or invisible disability?
A hidden (or invisible) disability is one that is neither immediately apparent nor easily seen. These can include, but are not limited to:

Neurological conditions (e.g. epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, migraines)

Neurodevelopmental or cognitive (e.g. ADHD, dyslexia, learning disorders)

Chronic illness or pain conditions

Sensory and processing (e.g. auditory processing disorder, sensory sensitivities)

Mental health conditions (e.g. anxiety)

At Driving Miss Daisy, our companion drivers have training in Hidden Disabilities, helping them better understand and support people who may have needs that aren't immediately visible.

Not all disabilities are visible. Small acts of understanding and support can make a big difference, helping people with hidden disabilities feel seen and included.

Carers Week

Caring is something no one should have to do alone. 💛

Looking after someone is an incredible act of kindness, but it's also a responsibility that shouldn't have to fall on one person's shoulders.

Having someone you trust to share that responsibility means support can continue, even when you can't be there yourself. Whether it's accompanying a loved one to an appointment or helping them get out into the community, having the right support means they don't have to miss out.

At Driving Miss Daisy, we appreciate the incredible contribution carers make every day. Their time, care and commitment mean so much and we’re here to share some of the everyday load.

Carers Week

You could be one of Australia's 3 million carers without even realising it. 💛

Do you regularly help a parent, partner, family member or friend attend appointments, get out into the community or manage everyday tasks because of age, illness or disability?

If this sounds like you, you may already be a carer even if you've never thought of yourself that way.

That's because, for many people, it begins by helping someone close to them and gradually becomes part of everyday life. The role may not always come with a title, but the time, care and commitment involved deserve to be recognised.

Whether you've identified as a carer for years or you're only just recognising the role you play, we want you to know that your contribution matters, and support is available when you need it. 🌼

National Carers Week

Every day, carers put someone else's needs before their own.

They give their time, patience and energy without expecting anything in return. They celebrate the good days, help through the difficult ones and are there for all the moments in between.

This National Carers Week, we want to turn the care around! 💛

What’s one small thing you could do to brighten the day of your carer or a carer you know?

Whether it's a handwritten note, their favourite treat, a heartfelt thank you or just letting them know how much they mean to you, every gesture counts.

Make a carer smile this week! 🌼

National Carers Week

Behind every appointment attended, every outing enjoyed, and every familiar routine is someone planning ahead, coordinating the details and making dozens of decisions that help life keep moving.

This National Carers Week, we want to recognise and thank the carers who give so much of themselves to support others. More than one in nine Australians are carers, with many balancing this role alongside work, study and family commitments of their own. 💛

We're fortunate to see firsthand the care and commitment that makes so many of the moments we share with our clients possible.

At Driving Miss Daisy, we understand how important it is for carers to have support around them too. By helping with appointments and outings, we can give carers reassurance and valuable time to focus on their own needs and responsibilities. 🌼

Today on World Mental Health Day, we pause to remind ourselves (and each other!) that mental wellbeing is just as important as physical health. 🌼 

A simple conversation, a short walk in nature, a shared laugh over a cuppa… sometimes it’s the little things that make the biggest difference. For many, staying connected, feeling supported and knowing they’re not alone is everything. 🌼

Our Daisies understand how vital those connections are. That’s why we do more than just provide transport. We offer companionship, care and moments of meaningful interaction that can brighten someone’s day. 🌼

Let’s continue to look out for each other – not just today, but every day. 🌼

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month — a time to raise awareness, show support and remind ourselves of the importance of looking after our health. 💗

This month, we’re showing our support for everyone affected by breast cancer — those living with it, those who have recovered, and the families, friends and loved ones beside them. 💗

Let’s wear pink, start conversations and support breast cancer awareness this October. 💗

Today is International Day of Sign Languages. 🤟💛

It's a day to celebrate sign languages and recognise the important role they play in the lives of millions of people around the world.

It's also an opportunity to appreciate the diversity that makes our society stronger. Every language represents a unique way of sharing experiences, building relationships and expressing identity.

At Driving Miss Daisy, we're proud to support an inclusive community where everyone feels welcome, whatever their communication needs.

Here's to embracing the many ways people connect with one another. 🌼

Today is a wonderful reminder to pause and appreciate the people, moments and simple joys that make life meaningful.

We’re also grateful for the wonderful Daisy community — our clients, families, carers and Daisies — who make every journey so special. 🌼
