Hire from just 1 day to 1 year
Accessible vehicles, when you need them
Whether it’s a family outing, a weekend away, or covering while your main car is off the road, ORA makes short-term accessible hire simple. Choose from wheelchair accessible vehicles, adapted cars, and accessible minibuses — delivered to your door.
Why Short-Term Hire?
Life doesn’t wait. When transport is disrupted, or you just need something bigger and more accessible for a few days, short-term hire keeps you moving.
Common reasons people choose ORA:
- Car in the garage — your usual vehicle is being repaired, but you still need to get around.
- Family visit or special occasion — a larger WAV or minibus makes travel easier for everyone.
- Weekend breaks and holidays — enjoy stress-free trips with vehicles that fit your accessibility needs.
- Trial before commitment — test different vehicle sizes before deciding on long-term hire or a subscription.
Why ORA?
ORA’s subscription is designed for individuals and families who want a reliable alternative to ownership.
