    i think it would depend on where you live, a few years back there were grants being given out in my area for hgv training for people signing on but only if you lived in certain parts of town, the best thing to do would be to call your local job centre.

    another option would be to see if the local bus company are taking on drivers as they quite often offer training.

    ask your father in law to help you and once you start work for him you can pay him back out of your wages
