Hi, new to this forum, just looking for some advice. My hubby has had his leg amputated and he has ongoing problems with his other leg and remains undiagnosed. He was a very good HGV class 1 driver before he got ill and would love to go back to it. What do you think the chances are of finding a company with adapted vehicles that would employ him? Any comments on this would be appreciated. Thanks xx.
