Edinburgh Taxi Outing 2026

Tabled 3 June 2026 by Christine Jardine

That this House welcomes the reinstatement of the Edinburgh Taxi Outing for children with additional needs; recognises that the event has been a cherished part of the Edinburgh community since 1947; understands that it brings joy and support to children and their families; notes concerns following changes to National Police Chiefs’ Council policy regarding police escorts, placing the future of the outing at risk; and further recognises the dedication of Edinburgh’s taxi drivers who have supported the event for generations.
