Young motorists in waiting will have the unique opportunity to learn some basic driving skills on this 60 minute Drive Age 10 session, hosted at the Lleweni country park near Denbigh in North Wales. It's all done on private land, on a specially designed layout that carefully simulates real life driving conditions. It's the perfect way for kids aged 10 and up to gain some motoring experience before they can take their full time driving lessons with their provisional licence at 17. The session is completely bespoke, so no matter whether they're a total novice or have some prior knowledge, the instructor can tailor the experience to them. But amongst the skills they can expect to learn and master, it'll be steering, braking, accelerating and changing gears, all done in a manual car with dual controls, so the instructor can step in and offer guidance or support as needed, but hopefully bring out your child's confidence behind the wheel. Plus, family and friends can come along and watch from the dedicated viewing area - so don't forget to bring along a camera to capture photos and videos!
