# Kent and Medway LGV Training
Kent and Medway LGV Training is a specialist driver training company based in Gillingham that focuses exclusively on Category C1 (7.5 tonne) vehicle training. The business has carved out a unique niche by dedicating itself entirely to this category, having suspended all other LGV categories to concentrate on their core offering.
The company primarily serves trainee paramedics, ambulance services, and emergency care workers seeking Category C1 certification—a requirement increasingly common in the NHS and ambulance trusts across Kent, Medway and the South East. However, their training also extends to drivers of horsboxes, motorhomes, builder's trucks, cherry pickers and scaffolding vehicles.
What distinguishes KMLGV is their commitment to one-to-one training delivered over typically three days, ensuring personalised instruction rather than group-based learning. They operate from the Gillingham LGV Test Centre, providing practical training and test access in a convenient location. The company emphasises that Category C1 is significantly more affordable and accessible than full HGV training, making it an attractive option for those without the need to drive heavier vehicles exceeding 7.5 tonnes.
Their straightforward approach—combining affordable pricing, specialist focus, personalised tuition, and direct support—has made them the only dedicated Category C1 training provider in Kent. They remain responsive and accessible to enquiries, acknowledging that staff are frequently out delivering on-road training.
