Testimonials
My elderly parents, one of whom is disabled and in a wheelchair, have been using French and Son far over a year We have found that the firm offers an excellent and caring service.
Their Staff are friendly and very helpful. Even on Christmas Day my parents received prompt, reliable and efficient transportation which even included one of the drivers wearing his very cheerful Christmas outfit! French and Son offer competitive prices and Allison in the Office always goes the extra mile to help meet my parents’ transport needs and she is ever cheerful. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.
Helen
I contacted French and Son to see if they could provide a wheelchair-friendly transfer for my mother, from her care home to a nursing home. I spoke to Allison on the phone and she couldn’t have been more helpful. Paul the driver was very pleasant and was clearly experienced in dealing with wheelchair passengers. I felt we were in very safe hands as he took us from Crowborough to Nutley. I would recommend this taxi company to anyone looking for a reliable and considerate transport service, particularly for wheelchair users.
Julie @juliehaiselden
Our family used French and Son for not one but two difficult journeys recently with elderly parents who have limited mobility. The driver was prompt and extremely caring, kind and patient. He did everything he possibly could to make the journey as least stressful as possible.
We would give the whole company top marks, from initial phone call to enquire about vehicle and availability through to actual journey and then through to booking return journey on a different day to when we have originally planned.
We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. They have been a pleasure to deal with.
Jean
I recently booked a taxi with French and Son to take my mother from a care home in Limpsfield to a nursing home in Danehill. The weather was terrible but Alison kept us informed of what was happening and even phoned the nursing home to let them know what was happening. Gary the driver was lovely, took great care of my mother when he strapped in her wheelchair. I would certainly recommend French and Son and would definitely use them again. It is very nice to find a company these days that cares for its customer and gives service.
Thank you and keep up the good work.
