On Sunday, November 17 Ashley will be delivering 45 minute lessons from 9am till 5pm, free of charge.

Now fully booked after just a few days, he will be offering his services to beginner, partially trained and anxious drivers.

The 37-year-old said: "I just moved into the area and I thought it would be a good way to connect with the local community and give something back.

"I didn't know what to expect, I'm teaching a real mixed bag of drivers."

Children in Need support disadvantaged children and young people all across the UK.

So far Ashley has raised £190 of his £500 target.
