After nine years serving the people of Huntingdonshire, we are sorry to say that the garage doors have been closed on My Taxi Home’s little London Black Cab for the last time.
Whilst retirement hadn’t been in my immediate plans, Hunts District Council’s change to vehicle emissions requirements means the cost of securing a compliant replacement vehicle would be economically unviable for a small, niche service like My Taxi Home.
It’s been a fantastic nine years for us, during which we’ve met some wonderful people from our first days at the St. Neots Station taxi rank, through the doldrums of Covid 19 and lockdown to providing wedding car and School Prom transport, and then rebranding My Taxi Home as a specialist taxi service to wheelchair users throughout Huntingdonshire District, and this post is a thank you to all that have used the service and travelled with us over those years.
Though our website and other social media listings have been taken off-line and our phone lines have been closed, we’ll be leaving our page open for another month, during which we’ll be happy to respond to any general queries about using wheelchair accessible taxi services in the Huntingdonshire District area and where we can, signposting customers to alternative service providers.
For now though, it remains only to wish you all well and to thank you all for your custom and especially for your support.

After our mammoth, (and exhausting!) tour of India to celebrate my wife’s retirement, we were back on the road and enjoying the late autumn sun around Cambridgeshire yesterday
We visited two of our familiar haunts: Nuffield Health in Cambridge and Hinchingbrooke Hospital, Huntingdon with two of Montague House Care Home’s residents who benefitted from our free of charge on-site waiting to ensure their speedy return from their appointments at no extra cost.
Despite the change in weather, it’s good to be back!

With my wife’s recent retirement from the NHS after an incredible 42 as a nurse, we’re having the holiday of a lifetime with an extended break for a tour of India.
It’s the first time in 35 years of marriage that we’ve travelled together so far and for so long, and hopefully she’ll bear with me and I’ll live to tell the tale of our trip.
We can’t take any calls for the time being, but I’ll be back behind the wheel from Monday 19th November and whilst we’re away, I’ll still be able to respond to booking requests for bookings from 10th November onwards through Facebook Messenger, Google messaging, WhatsApp and of course, by email.

The past week has found us visiting many of our familiar places: Addenbrookes Hospital in Cambridge, Hinchingbrooke Hospital in Huntingdon, The Acorn Surgery in Huntingdon and the MyDentist dental surgery in St. Ives, all of which were supporting our regular passengers who require wheelchair accessible transport to help them attend their vital healthcare appointments.
We also had a special role to play in supporting our bereaved passenger attend to her husband’s burial service and wake at the Arbury Trust’s Barton Glebe Woodland Burial Ground in Barton.
As always, we waited on site with all our passengers, to ensure we were immediately available to complete their return journey with us.

Today finds us in a sombre mood as we support one of our regular wheelchair user customers to attend a service at Huntingdon Crematorium, enabling him to join family members to pay their respects.
As always with our wheelchair user passengers, we’ve remained on site, without charge, so as to be ready to collect our passenger for his journey home.

Have we been to Addenbrookes Hospital and Hinchingbrooke Hospital with our wheelchair user passengers this week?
Of course we have!
But today is even more special than normal, because we’ve brought our Hillings Care Home passenger to spend the afternoon with his family and wife of 60 years to celebrate their Diamond Anniversary, at their local pub, The Royal Oak, in Hail Weston.
What a truly wonderful way to spend a sunny August afternoon.

As many who follow our page and see our posts in community group pages will know, not all, but a significant number of our passengers are wheelchair users, have reduced mobility or are a friend relative or loved one of someone who needs assistance to get to appointments and visits.
What we’ve found through our working with our customers, their families and their caters is that many of our passengers don’t enjoy the benefits of having a Blue Badge to support them on their journeys, though many family members have told us they think it would be beneficial to them.
The badges are valid for three years, and though there is an initial £10.00 outlay for the badge, it provides free parking at the region’s hospitals and many other managed parking sites, as well as offering greater flexibility on parking locations, as typically, disabled parking bays for Blue Badge holders are located closest to the amenities being visited.
If you haven’t already applied for a Blue Badge for you, your relative or a loved one, the link below will take you to the application website:

What a week, we’ve had!
Three proms, three hospital “wait and return” journeys , (one to Hinchingbrooke Hospital and two to Addenbrookes Hospital in the same day!) and to finish the week, a return journey for our Eaton Ford customers who came back today from their week’s holiday at Potters Resort, near Great Yarmouth.
With the rest of July already looking busy, if you or a loved one need wheelchair accessible transport for hospital visits, get-togethers with friends or days out to one of the region’s wheelchair accessible venues such as Wimpole Hall, RAF Duxford or Anglesey Abbey, call 0800 433 7190 to discuss your requirements or email us at [email protected]

At My Taxi Home, we understand that our customers know us best as the wheelchair accessible taxi service in Huntingdonshire that takes them to their hospital and other medical and dental appointments.
Like any taxi service though, there are days when there’s more to meeting our customer’s needs than their hospital visits, and today’s journey was one of those days, with a round trip of a little over 200 miles.
Though none of our passengers today were wheelchair users, as users of other mobility aids, they were able to take advantage of our taxi’s low-step design and spacious bench seat, as we embarked on our journey from Eaton Ford to Potters Resort, near Gorleston-On-Sea, Great Yarmouth, with plenty of room for our passenger’s holiday luggage and mobility aids.
Our outbound journey to Norfolk took us past the ever developing A428 road project and once passed Caxton Gibbet, we cruised towards the A14 and then on further to Suffolk’s Five Ways roundabout, where the A roads of Norfolk did what the A roads of Norfolk have done to holidaymakers for decades, slowing our progress to the coast with a series of traffic jams, strategically placed at every other roundabout we crossed.
Undeterred, we kept to the A roads and made it to the resort in around 3, rather than the 2½ hours predicted.
Having dropped our passengers at Potters Resort, I decided to explore some alternative routes back home to Somersham, and despite the absence of (congested) dual carriageways, the single track A roads that brought me through the small towns and pretty villages of Norfolk, Suffolk and East Cambridgeshire were uncluttered and flowing.
The journey home took me past the Tate and Lyle factory at Bury St. Edmunds, past fields of sugar beat, and arable crops of green and gold, until we ventured off the A14 near Newmarket to pass by grand houses and their studs, past livestock farms and village tea rooms and pubs.
I’ll be collecting our family of three from Pottons Resort next Friday to bring them back home, and for our return journey, I think we’ll bypass the congested dual carriageway by-passes that took us to Norfolk today, and come back to Eaton Ford instead by the A roads less travelled, but all the prettier and more interesting for that.

Our week of supporting our pre-booked wheelchair user passengers started with a visit to Primrose Hill Care Home in Huntingdon, where we collected our passenger and his family to take him to his out-patient consultation at Hinchingbrooke Hospital.
We followed up this journey with another pre-booked passenger a resident at Field Lodge Care Home in St. Ives, who was attending her dental appointment at the MyDentist surgery in Station Road St. Ives. For other wheelchair users looking for an accessible dentist, its worth knowing that the MyDentist on Station Road is both opposite several parking bays for Blue Badge holders, and perhaps most importantly, provides patients attending the surgery in their wheelchair, treatment without needing to transfer into a traditional dentist's chair, instead carrying out the treatment whilst the patient remains in their own wheelchair.
As with all our journeys supporting our wheelchair user passengers attending medical and dental appointments, we remained on site and waited for our passengers without charge, ensuring they were ready to return home immediately after their appointment had concluded - it's particularly important to be able to minimise the time our wheelchair user passengers have to wait before getting back home, and that that's especially so if they are living with dementia or other cognitive impairments, where long delays are likely to be distressing and confusing for them, and we know our policy to remain on site with our passengers makes a real difference to the quality of their experience with us.
Conversely, where our earlier customers had pre-booked with us, our third wheelchair using passenger and his wife had attended his appointment at St. Ives Clinic on Ramsey Road, St. Ives yesterday, and having pre-booked their journey there from Huntingdon and back with a large Huntingdon based private hire service, they were disappointed to find they had been sent for their journey back to Huntingdon a standard saloon car, which was of course entirely unsuitable for their needs.
Happily, our passengers managed to contact us at My Taxi Home, and we were able to get to them quickly and get them home to Cromwell House Care Home, with only a minimal delay, and we're happy to say that we're sure we'll be seeing them both again for future journeys.
We specialise in providing wheelchair accessible transport and we're often able to help out at short notice, just as we did yesterday, but we'd always recommend our customers pre-book with us, so if you or a loved one are a wheelchair user and you're planning a journey you can book with My Taxi Home knowing you'll always be provided with a vehicle that suitable for your needs.

and let us plan your next journey with you.

Many of our passengers wisely pre-book us to take them to their hospital and other medical and dental appointments as soon as their appointment is confirmed, and we always encourage them to do so, just as our St. Ives based passengers did for their appointment at the Oak Tree Centre in Huntingdon, earlier this week.
We appreciate though that it’s not always possible to plan ahead, especially when unforeseen events happen, as was the case when our Brampton based customer had a fall this week that needed a visit to Hinchingbrooke Hospital ‘s A&E Department.
We were glad to be able to respond at short notice to get our customer to hospital for treatment, rather than have her endure a long wait for an ambulance, and we were happy to be able to take her back home with her cater following her discharge from hospital later that day.
If you’re able to plan your travel and you can book ahead, we’d always recommend you do so, but when the unexpected and unforeseen intervene, we’ll be on hand to smooth out the bumps in the road.
