Leeds Private Hire Drivers Organisation (LPHDO), was started in the autumn of 2017. LPHDO was started by a group of normal Leeds Private Hire Drivers, because they were fed up off the oppression and draconian laws and measures imposed on them by the licensing department of Leeds City Council.
The common concern / complaint from drivers was the council doesn’t respect us or appreciate the valuable part we play in transporting members of the public 24/7 & 365 days of the year. Most importantly instead of working with us to make our lives easier the council were bringing out more & more stupid and money making ideas like the camera car!
LPHDO grew from a handful of drivers to over 700+ members & growing daily. LPHDO is a non-profit making organisation & is purely funded by Driver membership & donations.
The aim of LPHDO is to make the working life of Leeds Private Hire Drivers easier & to speak up and fight their corner at the council decision making level.Leeds Private Hire Drivers have been ignored for far too long!
So if you’re a Leeds Private Hire Driver join us and let’s make a positive change for all your fellow drivers and the trade as a whole!
