FOYER DRIVE
Foyer Drive works in partnership with Roadwise Driver Training, Grampian Police and Aberdeen College, to offer Road Safety Driving packages to young people and programme participants at Aberdeen Foyer. The package combines 20 hours of driving tuition with elements of safe driving techniques, driving citizenship and basic car maintenance.
A driving licence is often a passport to work for many young people, especially for those living in rural areas. The cost of driving lessons for recipients of benefits is prohibitive, therefore the highly subsidised lessons, made possible through working with Roadwise, is invaluable.
Pre-17 Driving Days
Working with Roadwise and Grampian police, Foyer Drive offers training designed to prepare and equip pre-17s for the challenges of learning to drive in the stress-free surroundings of an ‘off-road’ facility. Each pupil participates in sessions including a practical driving lesson, an interactive police road safety workshop and a road safety discussion group. The young drivers received expert guidance from Roadwise instructors, who emphasise that learning to drive is not just about passing a test but about taking responsibility, being aware of the potential risks to other road users and learning how to competently anticipate and handle hazardous situations.For more information, please contact
