5 am breakfast at Canary Wharf for the Master was a very early start to the day! But well worthwhile to support and enjoy what is one of the most deserving of all causes …. the annual Magical Taxi Tour organised by the Worshipful Company of Hackney Carriage Drivers since 1994.

On 25th September 2026 over 125 Black Cab drivers gave up their weekend to drive more than 200 children suffering from a range of chronic debilitating illnesses and life limiting condition to Disney® Paris for three days of fun where all difficulties and challenges can be put aside for a magical weekend. It is a wonderful experience for the children and their family members accompanying them.

The families, volunteers and sponsors all enjoyed a hearty breakfast, hosted at Canary Wharf, with some lively entertainment provided by a military band. The Master of the Hackney Carriage Drivers Livery Company gave a brief speech thanking all the volunteers supporting the send-off event, the black cab drivers and all the sponsors of the cabs.
