Ncat is a collaboration of specialist organisations working to improve accessible transport for disabled people in the UK. Funded by the Motability Foundation, ncat combines academic, industry, policy, and charitable expertise, with a strong focus on involving disabled people in research to develop real-world solutions. 

Scaling Innovation is a competition that offers up to £1.5 million to fund innovations aimed at tackling transport accessibility challenges. The competition will support up to 15 projects, providing funding, technical, and business support. Solutions must involve disabled people in their design and address specific accessibility challenges in transport. 

This webinar is designed to provide you with all the information you need to apply for this unique opportunity, dedicated to fostering innovation that improves transport accessibility for disabled people. During the webinar, you’ll learn about the programme's scope, the challenges you can tackle, the application process, and the criteria for assessment.  

The session will be accompanied by simple, neutral visuals. We will provide audio descriptions of key elements, and a detailed agenda will be shared beforehand.  

A recording will be available after the webinar, and this will include subtitles, and a transcript will be provided.
