We want the Government to provide funding to make the first 3 driving lessons free for new drivers, particularly people who turn 17, as some young people may struggle with paying for every driving lesson.

Fund free swimming lessons for all children 3-16
Drowning is a leading preventable cause of child death. RLSS UK suggest that in England, child drownings have doubled since 2019–20. I believe free swimming lessons for ages 3–16 could save lives, cut inequalities, meet curriculum aims, provide life skills, reduce long-term health and social costs.
Free driving safety event for older drivers
A community event offering free road safety advice and training for motorists aged 60 and above, covering hazard perception, first aid and highway code updates.
Request for driving instructor recommendation
A community member is seeking recommendations for a local driving instructor.
Free motorcycle safety training courses available
Fire service is offering free BikerDown safety courses covering hazard awareness and first aid for motorcyclists, with availability at multiple venues.
Fund free bus passes for all carers of disabled people
Amend the English National Concessionary Travel Scheme, Transport Act 2000 and relevant legislation, and fund mandatory free bus passes for all carers of disabled people. There are disabled people who cannot travel without their carers and we think carers should be able to travel with them for free.
