Motability is a national charity, set up to assist disabled people with their mobility needs. They direct and oversee the Motability Scheme which enables disabled people to obtain a car, powered wheelchair or scooter simply by using their government-funded mobility allowances.

Aims:
To help people with mobility problems obtain more freedom.

Activities:

• Helps people who qualify for the higher rate mobility component of Disability Living Allowance or the War Pensioners Mobility Supplement to hire or buy a car or buy a powered wheelchair.
• Raises funds to meet the costs of specisl equipment and adapted cars for disabled people who could not afford to become mobile without extra help.
• Provides disabled people with safe, reliable and affordable cars. Cars account for 99% of the Scheme's activities, with powered wheelchairs and scooters making up the balance.
