Community Involvement
We believe it is important to engage with our local communities and have many initiatives in place to help improve our social environments.
We are a corporate sponsor of Brake The Road Safety Charity & support Building Better Futures.
_______________________________________________________
Brake is committed to preventing death and injury on the roads through education of all road users and campaigning for road safety.
Supporting Brake
We have actively participated in National Road Safety Week since 2007 during which we visit local schools and help young children learn about the dangers they face on our roads. We also have hosted numerous Beep! Beep! Days specifically designed for infant schools children to help them learn about vital road safety.
Since our sponsorship we have visited 16 Schools and educated 2,670 children!
We have recently supported Brake to launch a new campaign called Pledge 2 Drive Safely. Pledge 2 Drive Safely takes people step by step through the pledge to drive safely and will invite you to formerly make a pledge. Give it a try!
