# DAB Plus Driver Training
DAB Plus Driver Training operates as part of Buchan Dial-a-Community Bus (BDACB), an award-winning transport charity based in Maud, Aberdeenshire. Founded in 2000, the organisation has evolved from a single bus operation to managing a fleet of ten vehicles, establishing itself as a vital community asset across the Buchan region.
The charity's primary mission centres on combating isolation amongst vulnerable individuals through accessible, affordable transport solutions. DAB Plus specifically provides driver training services within this broader community transport framework, supporting the charity's goal of enhancing mobility for those who might otherwise face barriers to independent travel.
What distinguishes DAB Plus is its deep community roots and social purpose. The organisation operates under Fair Work First criteria, paying the real Living Wage and ensuring effective voice conditions for all staff—demonstrating genuine commitment to ethical employment practices. The charity's 25-year track record, recognised by the Scottish Parliament with a motion of thanks, reflects consistent, reliable service delivery to Aberdeenshire's most vulnerable populations.
Unlike commercial driving schools, DAB Plus operates within a charity context focused on community benefit rather than profit maximisation. This positioning enables the organisation to offer affordable training whilst reinvesting returns into expanded community transport services. The integration of driver training within a broader transport charity means graduates benefit from employment opportunities within BDACB's established operations.
