Introduction
One of Project Mobility’s most recent endeavours was highlighted on BBC 2’s Top Gear, when their Project Rally team took part in their inaugural rally. This team comprises a diverse group of disabled and able-bodied service members, disabled civilians, volunteers, racing enthusiasts, mechanics and rally experts, all united by their shared goal – they are rigorously training to compete in the world’s most challenging motorsport event, The Dakar Rally.

Project Mobility provides practical assistance and emotional support by converting 4×4 vehicles for use by amputees, or those with disabilities that affect driving. Additionally, the organisation offers wounded ex-service men the opportunity to engage in thrilling off-road Safari experiences, embracing adventure and new challenges.
The Land Rover Freelander, featured in Project Rally’s recent appearance on Top Gear, is equipped with a Safety Devices roll cage. Safety Devices is proud to support Project Mobility in their efforts, including the conversion of a Land Rover Defender 110, and we wish them every success in their important work.
