All I can say is “wow”, I never knew about this ……what a wonderful wonderful charity……I have to admit I had a tear in my eye at points ……such genuine generosity from all concerned…..👍💪💖
Same here Andy, such a beautiful thing that I had no idea existed!
Amen to that!!
I got caught up at blackwall , traffic at standstill, then in opposite direction emerging from the tunnel was your convoy , at that point my delays meant nothing . What a awesome sight watching you all drive past . Such a worthy cause. Thank you all
Awesome Video, Thanks for donating your time to help out those kids, Great Effort
This is beautiful. I’m crying watching this, I’m 25 and have grown up with medical complications and had open heart surgery, I feel for these kids and families, it’s exhausting. Memories like this will last a lifetime. Thank you Tom
Everyone wins with this type of charity work. The drivers show their generosity and kindness, Parents get a memory to cherish but most of all the Children get to smile and experience happiness again. ❤
Thank you for this lovely event and video, a small donation towards it
My son (he's 20 now so has done quite well) has profound disabilities and medical needs and I can only echo the fact that as a family we seldom managed to do anything as simple as time together. We went on to DLP and were only able to do it by sending two of the kids in the car with their grandparents whilst we caught up using the wheelchair spaces on the Eurostar. Just the logistics of carrying special liquid food, pump, oxygen and incontinence supplies made for a packed car before we even included the usual luggage. After that trip we never managed to go away again together and instead would always split the family instead and I know that my kids have missed out on so much that other families just see as normal because of their brother's medical problems. Thank you so much to all of the drivers and committee members for putting so much time and effort into giving these families time to just feel a little normal.
I was one of the kids that was chosen in 2004. It was amazing. Starting at Canary Wharf for breakfast and police escort all the way, such a surreal and amazing experience. Stayed at the Western themed hotel in Disneyland Paris. Amazing few days, I'll never forget it. We'll done for getting involved and donating money as well as your time!
What an amazing thing to do for these children. Kudos to you all!
Wow, just wow. Like many other comments here, I never knew this existed and it’s simply unbelievable. To give this level of attention and organisation together with all the volunteers is outstanding and fantastic. There shouldn’t be poorly kids and they and their families go through hell in many cases. This is just a brilliant insight Tom, and credit to you for being a part of it.
I'm watching while :0 on my face.
Absolutely blown away by all of this, never knew this happened and hats off to all the people, companies and the charity who donate their time and services. WELL DONE to one and all, thanks Tom for filming and reporting.
Thanks
Absolutely amazing!
Well done London Cabbies and Police / RAC / French - I salute you all - truly marvellous x
I'm so glad you made this video tom. Not enough people know about this fantastic trip. Well done mate, you're a credit to our trade.
This is absolutely amazing! I was a patient at GOSH and everytime I see a charity helping children from that hospital it honestly warms my heart.
55 gallons for all those vehicles doesn't seem like much ;)
salutations, good job my dude, really proud of you and the taxi community! I hope this can spread worldwide, or at least Europe wide(?) all across Europe...I am sure the families and children will remember you (everyone involved) forever
I can full heartedly say, thank you!
This video brings back so many happy memories from my experience of the Children’s Magical Taxi Tour, back in 2017. It was the best and most memorable experience of my life. A truly incredible experience and feat of organisation. The amount of taxis, police cars and motorcycles (both French and British police, AA vans and recovery trucks, police riot vans and ambulances all in convey. It is truly incredible.
I also remember my taxi driver, I can’t exactly remember this name, but I believe it was somewhere along the lines of Kyle.
Great to see this and bring back the memories.
One of the best memories was all the taxis honking horns and ambulance sirens going off when leaving the ferry in France.
Edit: it brought a tear to my eye watching it 😢
Everyone wins with this type of charity work. The drivers show their generosity and kindness, Parents get a memory to cherish but most of all the Children get to smile and experience happiness again.
i was involved with this back in 1976 . i was in a military medical rehabilitation centre in Chessington surrey . we where taken to Brighton in a hundred car convoy . we had a star involved at the time jimmy saville . oops .
Absolutely loved this video, As a Navigation Officer who used to work for P&O Ferries (Made 'redundant' with all my British seagoing colleagues in March 2022... less said about that the better) I used to love welcoming you guys onboard, it was always all hands down to the car deck to welcome you and the kids onboard for this special day. I hope this charity continues for a really really worth while cause! So great to see all the preparations that goes into it!
Great work buddy. This is a huge charity run and very important. Well done buddy and keep up the good work 👍
This whole thing is legendary and big shout out to all involved!
I have to admit if I was a London cabbie I’d want to be involved in this. Great work by all those who give up their time and resources to put this on.
That was incredible. The amount of effort by all the volunteers. Well done to you all!
That right there is what I call actually doing something for for society you're actually donating your time unlike the Royal family you're actually doing something from America you're doing a wonderful job for you people

I was driving to France some years ago and saw the convoy of cabs. Great video and a wonderful thing for everyone to do 👍
Fantastic video Tom & so rewarding. What an amazing thing for the families & what a huge amount of organising that goes into it. I remember watching the black cab drivers taking children from London to Clacton for the day. We used to watch them on the bridges over the A12
Excellent job man..👍👍👍👍
