Welcome @moyraedwards to the community.
I don't have any experience with the issue you raise, hopefully someone will be able to offer some advice soon.
As an individual I stood alone.
As a member of a group I did things.
As part of a community I helped to create change! -
Hi @moyraedwards
Welcome to the community. I've moved your post to the equipment category. Hopefully we can get some suggestions for you!

Are you looking for a car that the person can transfer into (then fold the wheelchair and put it in the boot) or a Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle (with a ramp)?

You could go to a Motability Day and have a look at various options...
