About this opportunity

This funding round provides grants to organisations that provide driving lessons and car adaptations to help disabled people access transport. It funds organisations that provide driving tuition for disabled people. Organisations can apply for funding to support the continuation or expansion of existing services and support others to access this provision. Requests can include the costs for vehicles, adaptations, staff costs, approved driving instructor (ADI) costs, training, communication materials and overheads. The programme particularly seeks applications from Deaf and Disabled People's Organisations (DDPOs) and is interested in funding projects that deliver meaningful impact in deprived areas or to underrepresented groups.
