​My whole career was in IT but I was made redundant unexpectedly and had to investigate other options short-term. I have been with Longleys longer than I expected – I thought driving would be a temporary stop gap, but I find it really rewarding. I meet new people every day from all walks of life. Ultimately, I am looking to get back into my previous industry and working with Longleys gives me the flexibility to keep up to date with training so I will be ready. Once I find my way back in, I will probably still drive part-time - Saturday nights are addictive!

​I was previously a senior manager in my industry. After twenty-five years of commuting two hours each way, I wanted to find something closer to home so I could spend more quality time with my family. Driving with Longleys is great because I can vary my working week to suit my lifestyle. I expected to take a dip in income, but I make more money than I expected and drive a clean, modern car I can really take pride in.

​As a Mum, my children are my priority. I needed a way of earning money that I could pick up and put down and have some flexibility to fit around my commitments. I was surprised to find that it was possible to work in this way. I had to make an investment in getting a Private Hire licence but that’s easily paid for itself and I feel in charge of my life. I was worried about safety as a female driver, but all our cars have cameras on board and tracking, plus our customers are mostly regulars that I have got to know. I also have the option of turning away any fare that I am not comfortable with and that’s been great because I don’t feel pressured.
