The Worshipful Company of Hackney Carriage Drivers.
The Big Breakfast
Our trip from 2nd - 4th October 2009 will start as usual from Canary Wharf where we entertain and give the children and helpers the 'Big breakfast' before the giant convoy departs to catch ferry at Dover. In the past this spectacular scene has attracted a great deal of media coverage with numerous television companies in England, France and around the world following our trip.
If you sponsor a taxi, you will be invited to the breakfast on the 2nd giving you photo opportunities. Alternatively we can arrange for a photograph to be taken for you.
Sponsored taxis can carry door advertisements with your company's image along with the name of the event . "The Children's Magical Taxi Tour", for the duration of the trip. The children and helpers in the taxi can also wear sweatshirts with your company's advertising. So if you would like to help by sponsoring a taxi please call or complete the contact form in this booklet.
If you are not in the position to sponsor a taxi, perhaps you and your friends or colleagues would like to club together and make a donation. If so, please call or complete the Donation form in this booklet or click on our make a donation link..
