If you are acting on behalf of a disabled person, a Motability car might help you give them more freedom. Vehicles can be driven by three named drivers (a third can be added for an additional cost) for the disabled person’s benefit.

A carer can help the Motability recipient apply to the scheme and choose a car, but they cannot be legally responsible for the lease agreement unless they are an appointee or a corporate appointee. An appointee is someone who is solely responsible for collecting a disabled person’s benefits and deciding on how they should be used, and is often a family member or a charity.

A Motability agreement cannot be discussed with anyone besides the customer unless they are named as a nominee on the lease agreement. Nominees can make minor changes, and can be added by completing a nominee form on the Motability website.

Not sure whether you are an appointee? You need to contact the DWP on 03457 123456 or Veterans UK on 0808 191 4218.

We can introduce you to a limited group of carefully selected credit providers who may be able to offer you finance for your purchase. Credit providers may have different interest rates, charges and acceptance criteria and therefore we cannot guarantee advertised offers are available in every case. We do not charge you a fee for our services. We are only able to offer a range of finance products from these providers, which may be suitable for you and we will explain the key features of these products to you. These finance providers will pay us for introducing you to them. Other lenders may be available to you personally and we are happy to work with these.
