July 2014 saw the start of a grant scheme for the purchase of or conversion to wheelchair accessible vehicles.  Grants range from €10,000 for a new vehicle to €3,000 for a five year old vehicle.

By 1 November, we had issued 229 Conditional Grant Letters – over 50% for proposed new vehicles.

The Grant operates on a first come, first served basis and funding is coming to an end.

If you want to apply for the grant, you must submit your completed application form for consideration by 28 November 2014

If you have already applied and received a Conditional Grant Letter, you need to finalise the vehicle suitability test and licensing process as soon as possible.  A vehicle licence must be granted to you by 24 December 2014 in order to obtain your Grant.
