I hadn't been to the rose garden in three years. My daughter booked Gentle Journey for me and the driver was so lovely — he even waited while I sat on the bench and just breathed it all in. I cried with happiness.

Mum has dementia and we were so nervous about letting her out. The Family Portal changed everything — I could see exactly where she was the whole time, and she came home beaming. She hadn't smiled like that in months.

I use a wheelchair and always felt like a burden. With Gentle Journey, the driver makes me feel like a VIP. Last month I went to three farmers markets and the art gallery. I feel alive again.
