Volta are proud to be a partner of the Motability Scheme. The Motability Scheme enables anyone in receipt of a higher rate mobility allowance (such as the Enhanced Rate of the Mobility Component of Personal Independence Payment or the Higher Rate Mobility Component of Disability Living Allowance) to use their mobility allowance to lease a car, scooter, powered wheelchair or Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle.

You simply exchange all, or part of your mobility allowance to lease the vehicle of your choice. You choose the vehicle you want at a price that works for you, and payments will be deducted from your higher rate mobility allowance every four weeks.

Motability’s standard lease is over five years if you are leasing a Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle. Motability take care of running costs such as insurance for up to three named drivers (this does not have to be you), servicing, maintenance, breakdown cover, tyre repair and replacement and windscreen repairs. All you need to do is add fuel and go.

Motability Foundation provide a simple way to lease a new car, scooter, or powered wheelchair without the worry of owning or running one.

Since it began in 1978, the Motability Scheme has helped millions of disabled people and their families gain independence and freedom.

Motability Foundation, as a national charity, may be able to provide charitable grants to disabled people who would otherwise be unable to afford the vehicle, adaptations or driving lessons they need.
