Herts Ability is a ‘one stop station’ for everything driving related and learning to drive.
With over 60 years’ experience of helping people with physical and hidden disabilities in the Hertfordshire area, we know exactly what we are doing.
Herts Ability can assist you with anything from applying for your provisional driving licence to theory test support, dealing with the DVLA and getting you on the road as an independent driver.
First things first!
Once you have a provisional driving licence, we’ll need to meet up in our Welwyn Garden City offices. Officially, this is called an assessment, but we are happy to call it whatever suits you. Our teams understand that the thought of assessments, tests and exams can sometimes be daunting, so we’ll work with you to make everything feel friendly and comfortable.
This assessment will help our teams identify your needs as an individual. We’ll look at what you can do and give advice on how you can do more! Of course, this will also be the first opportunity to get behind the wheel too. With our expert DVSA Approved Driving Instructors, you’ll be in safe hands. Don’t worry if you make mistakes, everyone does; we just want to see what you can do.
You’ll have a lot of information to take in, but don’t worry – Herts Ability will send you a full report with everything we’ve discussed.
We are proud to work in partnership with ADD-vance and very happy to offer a discount for this assessment to anyone referred through the ADD-vance website.
Once the assessment is done, we can advise on your next steps.
We can:
- Help you find a local, non specialist Driving Instructor
- Offer a place in the Herts Ability Driving School with a specialist Driving Instructor
- Offer a place with the Herts Ability Theory Test Workshops
