    Hi Tanya,
    Derbyshire County Council offers free classroom sessions for older drivers. They are 90 mins long, predominantly online and cover topics such as eyesight, hazard perception and driving assessments.

    We have also recently launched our driving assessments for experienced drivers. These are heavily subsidised with a cost to participants of £20. This scheme hasn’t been launched to the public yet, but we have done a soft launch with those who have attended our classroom sessions in the last year.

    Thank you Julie, we do have the Dim Family project and I agree that it is interactive.

    We have a large county and numerous sets of The Dim Family equipment. However, after a lot of use, our sets are worn and many are damaged beyond repair. We are looking to reduce the use of this resource and do a different classroom workshop with an in-car safety theme.
