PIP, DLA and other benefit claimants could be entitled to free driving lessons

People claiming benefits could be entitled to get driving lessons for free through a grant offered by the Motability charity.

Claimants of benefits including Personal Independence Payment (PIP), Adult Disability Payment (ADP) and Disability Living Allowance (DLA), can get grants that will be offset against the cost of learning to drive as the lessons are offered through the 'Driving Lessons Grant Programme'.

Disabled people who already have a licence but need familiarisation lessons can also benefit from grants, according to Lancs Live. This may be useful to anyone who needs to get used to new adapted vehicle.
