Loneliness is an important topic that isn't talked about enough. Loneliness Awareness Week 15–21 June 2026 💛

Loneliness Awareness Week brings the world together to create change through conversation and connection.

Here is some of the things happening to change the conversation this week:
🍊 This week is all about the conversation and getting more people talking about loneliness
🍊 Encourage a third space such as a group, coffee club and more! A lack of third spaces for people to connect can foster loneliness
🍊 Break the Stigma stopping people from sharing their experiences of loneliness

This Loneliness Awareness Week, we’re Giving Loneliness A Voice. 💛

We encourage you to reach out and connect with those most vulnerable in your community

Men’s Health Week NZ is something our team feels strongly about. 💙

We work with many wonderful male clients every week, and we know that for a lot of men, staying socially connected, asking for support, or prioritising their health doesn’t always come naturally.

That’s why we love creating opportunities for men to get out, stay active, and spend time doing things they enjoy whether that’s a coffee outing, group activity, lunch with mates, appointments, or simply getting out of the house for a change of scenery.

Some of our favourite moments come from seeing friendships form, conversations flow, and confidence return through these outings.
This year’s theme, “What’s Your Score?”, is a great reminder to check in on all areas of health, physical, mental, and social wellbeing included.

A small step can make a big difference:
💙 Book the check-up
💙 Reach out to a mate
💙 Join the outing
💙 Get moving
💙 Talk about how you’re doing
No one should feel like they have to do it alone.

Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month is one that feels incredibly close to home for our team. 💙

Our team has the privilege of supporting people living with dementia and Alzheimer’s every single day and it’s a reminder that kindness, patience, and genuine connection matter more than we often realise.

Being Dementia Friends is something our team is very proud of, and we continue to build our knowledge and skills so we can better support both clients and their families through every stage of the journey.

While transport is part of what we do, it’s often the little things that make the biggest difference:
💙 Taking the time to chat
💙 Offering reassurance and familiarity
💙 Helping someone maintain independence
💙 Being a friendly, trusted face each week
This month is about raising awareness, encouraging understanding, and reminding people that those living with dementia deserve compassion, dignity, and support within our communities.

To all families navigating this journey, you are not alone. 💙

Happy King's Birthday. We hope you have a wonderful weekend 🚙🌼

Three weeks into our journey as Driving Miss Daisy Nelson East & West and we just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who has supported us so far.

From our wonderful clients and families, to the local community, healthcare providers, and everyone who has shared a kind word, recommendation, or encouragement, we truly appreciate it more than you know.

It has been incredibly rewarding getting to know so many lovely people in our community and being able to provide a service that helps people stay connected, independent, and supported.

We are excited for what’s ahead and look forward to continuing to grow and support the Nelson community.

Thank you for making us feel so welcome 💙
