getDriving

Obtaining a driver license and learning to drive is more expensive for people who have Cerebral Palsy compared to their able-bodied counterparts. This is due to lessons in specialised vehicles with disability modifications being more expensive, and potentially, members with Cerebral Palsy having other disability barriers to overcome which result in them needing more lessons (eg: startle reflex, learning disabilities, sensory impairments etc).

The getDriving grant aims to provide current financial members of the Cerebral Palsy Society with driving lessons, enabling them to gain their Restricted Driver License.
