The Motability scheme plays a vital role in removing barriers for many disabled people. It supports independence, employment, family life, and participation in communities.

Through this survey, we want to understand:
• How disabled people currently experience Motability
• What impact recent and upcoming changes to the service may have
• Why the scheme is important and where it falls short

Your experiences will help us build evidence and strengthen our advocacy.

Complete our survey online here: https://forms.office.com/e/Kz5MfsYrWE

An Easy Read version of the survey is also available here: https://inclusionscotland.org/news/motability-service-survey

We're often asked about Blue Light Cards for PAs - this is great news from Personal Assistants Network Scotland 👍

We’re excited to be partnering with Independent Living Group to offer Personal Assistants in Scotland greater support — including access to the Blue Light Card, with our PANS Plus Membership upgrade. 🎉🙌

While Personal Assistants are still recognised as private carers in Scotland, this upgrade gives you access to benefits designed to assist you in your role.

For the subsidised offer of £35 (two-year membership), you’ll receive:

☑️ Blue Light Card
☑️ Access to a free legal helpline
☑️ Save thousands on new car purchases
☑️ Online shopping discounts

And more! 1 year membership also available for £20.

If you’re already a member, you can upgrade simply by registering online today.

More information - https://panetworkscotland.org.uk/join-pans/introducing-pans-plus✨/

PANS Plus is currently the sole pathway for PA’s in Scotland to obtain a Blue Light Card. This offer is exclusive to PANS Members only.

We hope this brings encouragement and support for the incredible work Personal Assistants do everyday.
