Coleshill HDT
The staff (Darren, Richard and Mark) at the coleshill site are absolutely fantastic. Helpful, supportive and kind throughout the whole process, could not have asked for a better team to train me. Passed first time! Special thanks to Darren who was my main instructor, 10/10!

Absolutely amazing support from Heidi couldn’t of done it without her experience and knowledge big thank you to her and would highly recommend taking your training with hughes
My instructor was Steve in Plymouth
My instructor was Steve in Plymouth, and I can’t thank him enough for all his help and support in achieving my C1 licence. I had put this off for a long time because I was so nervous, but Steve was incredibly supportive from the very beginning.
I really appreciated his kind and patient approach, he never once made me feel silly. What started as something I was absolutely dreading actually became something I genuinely enjoyed, thanks to Steve’s encouragement and teaching style.
Thank you, Steve, for helping me take this important step on my paramedic journey! Could not recommend him enough.
Florin Canura
I had a very nice experience with this guys, i booked my driving practical and cpc. I had 2 weeks to pay in 2 instalments and Alex was very nice and accept my situation. In 5 days i got my class 1 licence plus CPC card. I really recommend them if you wanna get a professional licence. I was assigned to Leeds site and with an instructor named Dan. He was more than professional with me and helped me with everything i need to drive it safe make me get out from "van mode". :]] All the best guys and thank you for everything.
Alfreton
I did my training at the alfreton yard. Everybody there was extremely friendly and professional. I had Andy W as my instructor and i cannot praise him enough. He taught me everything i needed to know about my c+e. He was patient and really helped me calm my nerves, especially at roundabouts !
Cannot reccomend these guys enough
Amazing experience
I passed my 3a reverse and 3b C+E driving tests first time with Hughes Driver Training in Thurmaston. Currently they have only one instructor, Niel, and he was fantastic with me. I’m really proud of passing and can’t thank Niel and HDT enough.

Intensive courses in a very accommodating environment
I recently passed my PCV driving test and my CPC with Hughes. I have Autism Spectrum Disorder, and while I found some elements of the course to be quite intense (as is the nature of the courses with the shorter timescale), I felt that the people at Hughes, in particular my instructor Ady, were very accommodating and understanding, especially when I mentioned my condition to them. The training itself was highly comprehensive but well-applied, and Ady did a great job setting my mind at ease while also pushing me to improve my driving to that which was required. He set clear standards while making it easy to learn. Overall, I was looked after very well, and I would recommend them all day.

HDT, Great company to do your LGV licences with, from day one all of my courses were booked for me no stress. My instructor Richard from Coleshill, gave me lots of encouragement and advice so I’m pleased to say I passed first time with no previous experience would use them again…
