The aim was to raise awareness of mobility issues among the disabled community and to show how the Motability programme can help.

More than six per cent of new cars in Britain are supplied through Motability, which helps disabled people become mobile.

Phoenix is a Motability accredited supplier and provides specially adapted cars.

Phoenix managing director Phil Jeffery said his company had provided Motability services for 15 years.

"A Motability car is much more than just a means of transport - it's a passport to the outside world and an opportunity to live a fuller life.

"We're proud to be asso-ciated with this charity."
