Journey details
Where will your client be travelling and how often?
Postcode of most frequent destination
Trips per week
Based on this distance and frequency, your client would travel more than 800 miles per month. Please contact ORA to discuss the most suitable hire arrangement.
Duration of regular travel to this destination
Typical time of travel
Many local taxi providers are contracted by councils to run school transport for disabled children, making them unavailable during morning and afternoon peak times. Your client may find it more difficult to book a suitable accessible vehicle at this time of day.

Funding and planning
A few final questions to complete your client's profile
Has your client applied for PIP?
A successful PIP application can take several months. Starting the process early is important — it unlocks access to a number of funding streams including the Motability Scheme.
Has your client applied to the Motability Scheme?
Even if a client has successfully applied for PIP, it may be another several months before they receive their vehicle from Motability. ORA hire can provide immediate accessible transport while that process completes.
