Concessions and mobility centres

Parkinson's shouldn't stop you from getting around – there are different transport and travel schemes you may be able to apply for to make travelling a bit easier, and to keep you on the roads safely.

If you have Parkinson's, you might be worried about how it will affect your ability to get out and about.

Find out more about the different schemes you may be able to apply for to help you get out and about. 

Mobility centres

Mobility centres provide information and advice on driving for anyone with a disability who uses a car, as a driver or a passenger. They can also assess your ability to drive and fit adaptations to a car, such as steering aids. Information and advice is free, but centres charge for assessments and driving tuition.
