They are doing a photo shoot in Bath on Tuesday 30th April and are looking for 2 to 3 Older Drivers who would be willing to photographed. They are looking for Men and Women, as well as any one of that age group who drives an adapted vehicle.

They will pay £100 to each person.

DRIVING SAFELY ON RURAL ROADS

This popular series of zoom webinars returns

at 10am on Saturday 27 April    

Conventional wisdom is to drive as much as possible on motorways and dual carriageways as these are the safest classification of roads.

However, if you live in a rural county, there is no option but to regularly use rural roads which are statistically more dangerous. Over a 5-year period Gloucestershire Highways report 34% of all road casualties are on unclassified roads.  .

In this month’s webinar we share information on how to drive safely on rural roads, with updates on general advice about mature driver safety.

     The webinars are free to join, use zoom, but a zoom account is not required.

      To register click HERE or e-mail odfglos@gmail.com with your name and the
