You can then book the practical training which can be conducted in your own car (recommended, as you know your vehicle) or my dual controlled car on a day and time that suits you. The training will be structured to suit your specific needs or concerns.
This is a similar course to the ‘Safer Driver for Life’ course that I presented in Northumbria. I saw first hand how that course changed peoples lives by giving them the confidence to drive further afield, or even drive again for the first time in many years.
So it was my priority to have this course as an integral part of my training options as I still feel there are an awful lot of people out there who would benefit from this type of training, as its so easy to lose confidence if you haven’t driven for a while.
