From time to time we run courses and programmes that aim to help older road users feel safer and more confident as they travel around the community.
Want to refresh your driving skills and knowledge to stay safe driving on the road? This free joint initiative between Age Concern and NZTA Waka Kotahi provides an opportunity to review your driving practices and your knowledge, with the use of videos and discussion with a driving instructor, it makes for an interactive fun session and has plenty of time for questions.
This classroom based workshop is free of charge. It will also increase your knowledge about other transport options and help you remain independent for longer.
For more information or to book your spot, please call Jackie at Age Concern on 021 195 8108 or visit ageconcernnt.org.nz/services/older-drivers(external link).
