The transport charity MOTABILITY is celebrating its 40th Birthday. The scheme was designed to help disabled people remain mobile, and allows them to exchange their weekly mobility allowance to cover the cost of leasing a new car. The scheme leases cars, mobility scooters and Wheelchair Accessible Vehicles (WAVS) to people who qualify for the government’s mobility allowance.
The MOTABILITY package offer usually includes insurance, servicing and maintenance, and breakdown cover. It can also take care of your annual tax.
The scheme founded by peers, has helped disabled people lease 4.5million vehicles using government funding. Up to 600,000 people a day currently benefit.
