The Driving Centre is fully accreted as a member of the Forum of Mobility Centres. They provide driving assessments and tuition. These Assessments help you return to driving or assist with getting the right adaptations. Driving tuition is available for disabled learner drivers or drivers re-training to use adaptations.
