NEED-A-CAB IS PROUD TO PARTNER WITH PLYMHUB — PLYMOUTH’S NEW DIGITAL ADVERTISING PLATFORM
As Plymouth’s local taxi company, Need-A-Cab is excited to be working with PlymHub, a new digital platform created to help local businesses reach people who live, work, shop, travel and spend time across Plymouth and the surrounding area.
And PlymHub is already live.
📍 15 active digital kiosks are already installed in high-footfall locations across Plymouth, putting local businesses directly in front of residents, workers, shoppers and people exploring the city every day.
📱 The brand-new PlymHub app is also launching soon, creating another powerful way for businesses, attractions, events and organisations to connect with people across Plymouth and the wider region.

Businesses advertising through PlymHub can benefit from:
📍 Exposure across our growing digital kiosk network

🚕 **UBER, NATIONAL APPS OR LOCAL?**

**Who licenses the taxi taking you home?**

Plymouth is our home — and we care about the people who live, work and travel here.

When you book a taxi, it isn’t just about getting from A to B.

It’s about **safety, trust, accountability and safeguarding**.

Across England, private hire drivers can be licensed by one council while working predominantly in a completely different area — sometimes hundreds of miles away.

That raises an important question:

**If something goes wrong, who is responsible for the licence?**

Where a driver or vehicle is licensed outside Plymouth, Plymouth City Council does not normally have the same power to suspend or revoke that licence directly. Serious concerns may need to be referred back to the authority that originally issued it.

For passengers, **local accountability matters**.

And it matters even more when someone may be vulnerable:

✅ Children and young people
✅ School transport
✅ Elderly passengers
✅ Hospital journeys
✅ Lone passengers
✅ Late-night travel
✅ Anyone needing additional care or assistance

**Safeguarding should never be an afterthought.**

At **Need-A-Cab**, Plymouth isn’t simply another area on an app.

**It’s our home.**

🚕 Our drivers work here
🏢 Our company is based here
📍 Our team knows Plymouth
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Our customers are here
💚 Our reputation is here

When you choose Need-A-Cab, you’re choosing:

✅ Local Plymouth drivers
✅ Local knowledge
✅ Local accountability
✅ No surge pricing
✅ Fair and reliable fares
✅ A local office you can actually contact
✅ Support for local families and businesses
✅ Money staying within the local economy

National apps are built around scale, algorithms and operating across hundreds of towns and cities.

**We focus on Plymouth.**

We believe passengers should know who they are travelling with, who stands behind that journey and who they can speak to if they ever need help.

Because when you carry local people every day, **your reputation matters**.

💚 **Our city. Our drivers. Our responsibility.**

🚕 **CHOOSE LOCAL. CHOOSE NEED-A-CAB.**

**FEEL SAFE • BE SAFE**

Planning a journey? **Book early and avoid the last-minute rush.**

🏃‍♂️💚 **RICHIE’S 50TH HALF MARATHON!** 💚🏃‍♂️

This Sunday, **23rd August**, Richie reaches another fantastic milestone as he takes on his **50th Half Marathon of the year**. 👏🎉

But the challenge is even bigger than that…

This will also be **Run 66 of 100** in the fundraising challenge for the **Claire Chick Nursing Fund**. 💚

Richie and the team are putting in the miles to raise money and awareness for a cause that means so much, helping support future nurses and continuing Claire’s legacy.

🏅 **50 Half Marathons this year**
🏃‍♂️ **Run 66 of 100 for the fundraiser**
💚 **One very important cause**

A huge **thank you to Need-A-Cab Taxis** for all their continued support and sponsorship throughout the challenge. Your backing really does make a difference and is greatly appreciated. 🚕💚

We’d really appreciate everyone’s support as Richie heads into another huge weekend.

If you can donate, every contribution helps. If you’re unable to donate, simply **sharing this post** can make a real difference too.

💚 **Please support, donate and share.**

Good luck Sunday Richie — another big one! 💪🏃‍♂️💚
