FDAD Community Cash Program allows Ford Dealerships around Australia to support Community Programs within their local Community.

In 2022 the Tasmanian road toll continued to grow, leaving a devastating effect in our local community. As the local franchisee for one of Australia’s leading automotive brands, we wanted to invest in community to assist in changing the road toll statistics for the better.

We decided to invest in our local driving school. Ensuring not only do the vehicles have the latest technology and safety features, but importantly that the lessons were affordable and accessible for all members of the community.

Robert Bentley Driving School, through the Ford Community Program purchased a new Ford Escape from Burnie Ford, sign written to showcase the support of the Ford Brand for Learner Drivers, learning to drive in one of the safest and technologically advanced vehicles on our roads.

Subsided lessons can be obtained by visiting Burnie Ford for a voucher – allowing students to receive a Burnie Ford Subsidised lesson for only $50.
