A huge congratulations to our fantastic manager, Andrew, who has successfully completed his charity run in support of his cousin, and as an even bigger surprise and the best bit of news, Arissa has rung her bell to signify her remission!💜

Everyone here is incredibly proud of what you’ve achieved. Your determination, kindness and willingness to take on this challenge for such a personal cause have been an inspiration. We’re lucky to have you as part of our team, and we know so many of our customers will be proud of you too.

There’s still time to make a difference! Andrew’s fundraising page remains open until Monday, so if you’ve been meaning to donate, now is your chance. Every donation, big or small, will help support this important cause and will mean so much to Andrew and his family.

💜Let’s give Andrew one final push and help him finish as strongly with his fundraising as he did with his run!

Here at Oban Taxis, we’re incredibly proud to support our beloved operations manager Andrew as he takes on a 100 mile charity run in honour of his baby cousin Arissa, who is currently battling stage 4 germ cell cancer.

If you’ve travelled with Andrew, you’ll know he’s one of those people who always has a smile, a friendly chat, and goes the extra mile for our customers. He’s a much-loved member of the Oban Taxis family, and now we’d love to help him as he goes the extra mile for a cause that’s very close to his heart.

If you’re able to, we’d be so grateful if you could support Andrew by making a donation. Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference and means so much to him and his family.💜

🚨 OBAN — WE NEED DRIVERS 🚨

Alright Oban… we need your help 👀

We’ve got an amazing team (and we’re growing again 😅), but with a new car about to hit the road, we don’t have the driver coverage we need right now.

👉 URGENT: Weekend Day & Night Shifts
👉 Also Available: Weekday & Additional Night Shifts

If you’ve ever thought about driving taxis — now is the time.

This isn’t a “sit around waiting” job…
We are BUSY. Like properly busy. 🔥

✔️ Consistent work
✔️ Supportive, tight-knit team
✔️ Flexible options (we’ll work with the right people)
✔️ Immediate start available

But we need people who:
✔️ Show up
✔️ Want to work
✔️ Can handle a fast-paced environment

If that’s you — or you know someone who fits — message us NOW or tag them below 👇

Please don’t wait… weekend cover is the priority and we’re looking to fill these ASAP.

🚨 Important Service Update 🚨

Due to rising fuel costs, we’ve had to make some changes to how we operate…

From today, all journeys will now be carried out on a piggyback basis 🐷💨

Our drivers are currently undergoing intensive training and stretching exercises to ensure a smooth and comfortable ride for all passengers.

We kindly ask customers to:• Travel light 👜• Avoid heavy shopping trips 🛒

Thank you for your continued support during these challenging times.

(…Happy April Fools 😄)
