Closed petition Create a grant for Universal Credit claimants to learn to drive
Closed on
Introduce a grant specifically for people who are on Universal Credit to enable them to learn to drive and get a driver's licence.
In the past year I have had five phone calls from companies wanting to hire me or knowing a company that would want to hire me but due to my location in relation to them it would either take far too long (over an hour) or be near impossible to get to the office by using public transport. Due to the amount of money I receive from Universal Credit I have not been able to learn to drive or get a licence, due to how much they cost.
