We have a "duty of care" to our members, our staff, our volunteers and, not least of all the public in general, to ensure that our buses and passengers are safe to travel.
With the ever increasing range of wheelchairs available to people using our buses, it is becoming more difficult to ensure that our drivers have the specialised knowledge of each individual wheelchair to ensure that it is suitable for transporting and anchoring safely.
We can transport both manual and powered wheelchairs provided they meet the necessary health and safety requirements.
Keep Mobile have in house MiDAS DAT trainers. Our trainers hold acreditation from The Community Transport Association, which has to be current at all times.
The MiDAS training programme consists of theoretical and practical work.
The theory covers the different driving skills needed to drive a minibus, the legal requirements and responsibilities of drivers, and the special needs of passengers with disabilities.
