“Through our new Reducing Barriers to Driving Grant Programme, we hope to help charities and organisations to improve and expand private transport options for disabled people and their families beyond the Motability Scheme. Examples of grant funding from this programme could include (but is not limited to):

  • Funding to raise awareness of driving as an option and of the support and adaptations that are available.
  • Grants to expand the provision of driving and familiarisation lessons, and increase the number of instructors delivering lessons with adaptations.
  • Funding to organisations to help reduce the cost barriers around access to vehicles and adaptations.
[…] To ensure fair and transparent awarding of funding, each application will be assessed consistently against our criteria.”
