Yes Disability Resource Centre southern regional co-ordinator of the I.Lead programme Hannah Butson said the programme aimed to equip people living with a disability with the necessary skills and confidence to pass the national driving test. The programme took into account the multiple ways individuals learned and understood information and used strategies to help mitigate challenges, she said. Now part of the programme’s support team, he encouraged others living with a disability to join the programme. The I.Drive programme aimed to help with that.
