HARGREAVES Vauxhall Garage, in Kendal, is inviting people to find out more about cars for disabled people at a special Motability open day.
There are more than 1.5 million disabled people in the UK who qualify for the higher rate mobility component of disability living allowance but only around 400,000 disabled people have chosen to take part in the scheme.
People who use the Motability scheme have allowances from the Government paid towards the cost of having a car, powered wheelchair or scooter through a contract hire or hire purchase arrangement. Carers can also qualify if the car is for use by a disabled driver.
Hargreaves Motability Open Day take place at the Mintsfeet Road garage on Wednesday, February 9. For details call 01539724420 or visit www.motability.co.uk
