Free driving lessons for young people
Our flagship scheme 'Driving Ahead' is a package of 46 hours of free driving lessons, plus theory test and practical driving test fees, for young people aged 17-25 leaving the care of the London borough of Barnet.
Being able to drive can be a game changer for a vulnerable young person, boosting their self-esteem, employment options and reducing social isolation. It also instils a sense of self-worth. We now also offer support for young people who need help with passing their theory test.
​
Thanks to Driving Ahead, 20 young people have now got their driving licences and gained life-changing opportunities.
