The Motability Scheme is a government-backed programme that helps people with disabilities to stay mobile and independent. It offers a wide range of leasing options for cars, wheelchairs, and scooters that can be adapted to individual needs.
To be eligible for the Motability Scheme, you must receive a qualifying mobility allowance, such as the higher rate mobility component of Disability Living Allowance (DLA), the enhanced rate mobility component of Personal Independence Payment (PIP), or the Armed Forces Independence Payment (AFIP). If you meet these criteria, you can lease a vehicle or wheelchair through the Scheme for three years, before returning it for a replacement.
One of the biggest advantages of the Motability Scheme is that it offers a wide range of vehicles, from small city cars to luxurious SUVs, at affordable rates. The leasing costs include insurance, maintenance, breakdown cover, and road tax, so you don't have to worry about any extra expenses. You can also nominate up to two drivers for the vehicle, so your family members or carers can drive you around.
Whether you need a vehicle or a wheelchair, the Motability Scheme offers a flexible, affordable, and convenient solution that can improve your mobility and quality of life. If you're interested in joining the Scheme, contact our team for more information.
