Happy Mother's day to all super mums!

If you're a mum or know some mums struggling to learn to drive, check out pcds.co.nz for great inspiration. Here's a great success story of Lulu.

“I was determined to get my driver’s licence but it did not happen because there was no Road Code teaching at the Mangere Refugee Resettlement Centre.

Before I got my learner’s licence I was offered a car by a gentleman who had to go to a rest home because of his health. He wanted to give his car to a refugee and I was given the car through the Tenancy Manager. Read more:
