Be part of a refugee background woman's journey...
Have you got the drive?
We’re looking for some remarkable women willing to volunteer their time to take a refugee-background woman for driving practice.
The learner drivers have had lessons with a driving school and need practice to prepare for their restricted or full licence test. The learner driver will provide the car for practice. Comprehensive training and ongoing support will be given to volunteers.
You’ll make a positive difference to her life and her family’s, receive training in new skills, increase your understanding of another culture and contribute to improving driver safety on the road.
Next training 21 May.

Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?
