Motability

 

"What is Motability "

In the UK, over 1.7 million disabled people receive the Higher Rate Mobility Component of Disability Living Allowance and over 16,000 receive for the War Pensioners' Mobility Supplement.

What a disabled person chooses to do with that money is entirely up to them. Currently, some 500,000 disabled people have chosen to pay their allowances to the Motability Scheme to meet the cost of having a car, powered wheelchair or scooter, through contract hire or hire purchase schemes.

The Motability Car Scheme is administered on a contract basis by Motability Operations, a not-for-profit private company owned by the major banks. The Wheelchair and Scooter Scheme is operated by Route2mobility, a limited company, under contract to Motability.

Since being set up by the Government in 1977, over 2 million cars, powered wheelchairs and scooters have been provided through the Motability Scheme. Today the Scheme purchases over 5% of all new cars, powered wheelchairs and scooters sold in the UK.
