The Government are introducing an accredit scheme for car and trailer training in June 22. Encourage all persons who are towing to complete familiarisation training, which will be backed by the car insurance companies. We are accredited and just waiting full details from the accrediting body on the full course details.
All of
our courses can be booked over the phone, via email or at our office SP28RH. We would encourage all new customers to call us, so we can speak to you and understand your personal requirements. We understand that budget and time constraints can be tight, so we will do our best to tailor our courses to suit you. We do recommend that you call and chat about your needs and previous driving before selecting a course. You may save even more money by being recommended to a shorter course than you thought. We need to understand the journey you want to go on. This allows us to know how to approach you training allowing for your personal requirements.

We would strongly recommend you take a 2 hour starter session before training This gives you an opportunity to experience driving a larger vehicle before committing to a full course.
