Learning to drive is a big step towards independence, and at Acorn SOM, we believe everyone should have the chance to enjoy that freedom — including learners with disabilities. Our driving school for disabled drivers offers calm, personalised lessons to suit each person’s needs and ability, helping them gain confidence behind the wheel in a safe, supportive environment.
We understand that every learner is different. That’s why our instructors are trained to adapt their teaching style for students with physical disabilities, hearing difficulties, learning challenges, or nervous driving habits. Lessons are designed to move at your pace, focusing on building confidence and developing safe driving habits.
At Acorn SOM, we provide:
Automatic vehicles for easier control
Hand controls or other car adaptations (available on request)
Supportive, patient, and fully qualified instructors
Flexible driving lesson times and home pick-up options
Whether you’ve never driven before or just need to refresh your skills, we’re here to help.
For learners who’d prefer to complete their training in a shorter period, we also offer intensive lessons like our popular driving crash course Preston. These courses are perfect for anyone who wants to quickly gain experience and prepare for their driving test.
Our disabled driving lessons are available in Preston, Blackburn, Darwen, Accrington, and nearby areas. No matter where you’re based locally, our instructors will arrange lessons at times and locations that work best for you.
