Initially NWTP was a lobby group seeking change to the way the taxi industry was administered by the DOE and we were also seeking to create a voice for the local taxi industry and articulate their case. We developed an agreed vision for the local taxi industry and began working for change. â€‹ Our mission statement was and is to create a fair and regulated taxi industry for everyoneâ€. â€‹ We sought funding for the group and were helped by the Social Economy Agency. Finally, we received funding moved to the Rath Mor Centre. â€‹ The Rath Mor Centre has been our home for over 15 years. With more funding from the Big Lottery Fund NWTP evolved to become more of a community group and we took on other issues besides lobbying like health, education, income & employment and we developed a few volunteering projects (Taxi Watch, taxi drivers with throw-lines and Foyle First Responders, taxi drivers with Defibs) and we developed several programmes. We continued lobbying for change within the taxi industry and worked with many others along the way.
