RIDER REVIEWS

We don't just say we're accessible. Our passengers say it for us.

I've been a passenger with WightRides for 18 months now. The van is spotless, Simon always arrives early, and I never have to worry about my chair fitting — it just works. That calm feeling is worth everything.

We booked WightRides for our son's school transfer after other companies said they couldn't accommodate a powered chair. Simon handled it like it was nothing. Our son felt independent for the first time.

I use WightRides to get from Sandown to the ferry at Fishbourne. Simon texts me when he's left the house and waits until I'm safely on board. It's just reliable — no fuss, no hassle.

I needed an accessible car at short notice for a hospital appointment. Other firms said they were fully booked. Simon rearranged his schedule, turned up with a smile, and had me there 20 minutes early.
