Mobilise

Who we are

Mobilise is a national UK charity which campaigns to improve mobility and access for disabled people. With almost a hundred years of campaigning history behind us, Mobilise is run by and for disabled people.   We believe that personal mobility impacts on every aspect of disabled people's lives and we seek to promote a better way of life for all disabled people irrespective of age, gender or race; and to end discrimination and segregation.   Mobilise is not just an organisation for drivers. We also campaign for and support passengers, scooter and wheelchair users, families and carers.

What we do

By lobbying government and businesses in the UK, we fight to address the inequalities faced by many disabled people.We also provide information and guidance to enable people to make informed decisions about their individual transportation requirements. We do this in various different ways. Our information officers are available to answer questions by phone, email or letter and we also run a confidential casework service for members who are experiencing difficulties with parking, driving, public transport, insurance, funding or any other problem that impacts on their mobility. Our monthly magazine, Mobilise, keeps members abreast of all sorts of issues, including our current campaigns, the latest news and reviews of vehicles, scooters and mobility aids as well as a variety of features. We also publish a series of leaflets and information sheets which aim to clarify the often complicated world of VAT, vehicle tax and parking. When it comes to finding solutions to the mobility problems our members face, we believe that choice and affordability are paramount.  

CAMPAIGNS   It is because of the hard work of Mobilise that disabled people are exempt from the London congestion charge and are protected from wheel clamping. But there is still plenty more to be done and Mobilise is currently working on lots of other campaigns. By joining Mobilise you are helping to support us in this vital work.  Come and visit our stand to find out more.
