DATA Derby: Supporting Local Drivers, Strengthening the Community
At Driven by Derby, we’re proud to back initiatives that bring local drivers together and DATA Derby is a shining example. As a free to join private hire association, DATA Derby provides a platform for drivers across the city to unite, share knowledge and have a stronger voice in shaping the future of Derby’s taxi and private hire trade.
Building better communication
In an industry that can often feel fragmented, DATA Derby is helping drivers communicate directly with Derby City Council, improving transparency and ensuring driver feedback is heard. From licensing updates and regulatory changes to operational challenges, the association aims to act as a bridge between drivers and regulators, helping to streamline processes, raise professional standards and protect the integrity of the trade.
Peer support and professional growth
DATA Derby also fosters peer-to-peer support, giving drivers the chance to share advice, best practices and experiences. New drivers can get guidance quickly, while established drivers stay informed about changes and opportunities. By coming together, drivers can collectively address challenges, celebrate achievements and work toward solutions that benefit the entire community.
A positive impact on the community
The benefits extend far beyond the drivers themselves. By fostering collaboration and communication, DATA Derby helps create a safer, more reliable and professional transport network. Passengers benefit from drivers who are informed, supported and deeply connected to Derby. Every journey contributes to a transport system that is fair, transparent and proudly local.

Supporting Derby drivers, investing in local skills, and putting the community first is central to everything we do. We share that vision with DATA Derby, helping drivers have a voice, develop professionally and contribute to the greater good of Derby’s transport network.
