Reclaim your lifestyle, connect for thriving independence.
"Getting On helped my father regain his confidence to attend social events again. Their support was discreet and left room for him to step into his old self without worry or embarrassment. It’s not just about having someone there; it’s about having the right support to be truly part of the moment."
— Sarah, Daughter of a Client

Vincent’s story
Vincent, 81, had always been a central figure in his sailing community, but when he lost the ability to drive, the distance between him and the coastal club became a real barrier. For a time, he felt isolated from the friends and the sport that had once brought him so much joy.
That’s when Getting On stepped in. Rather than simply offering transportation, we worked with Vincent to help him reclaim his independence, aligned with his personality and sense of style. Together, we coordinated a solution that was not just practical but life-affirming: Vincent’s fully remodeled vintage car became the perfect way to get him up the coast, reinvigorating his sense of adventure and personal flair. With a carefully planned schedule, we ensured every trip was smooth and seamless, allowing Vincent to step confidently back into his sailing community, not as someone needing help, but as the vibrant, independent man he’d always been.
Now, Vincent is more than just a participant—he’s back at the helm, engaging with his sailing friends in a way that feels true to him. His connection to the community is stronger than ever, and each trip up the coast serves as a reminder that distance doesn’t have to diminish his independence.
