       Road Safety Training for Older Road Users

We hope to be in a position to continue to offer awareness raising sessions for older road users in the London Borough of Hounslow this year. We support older road users to develop healthy habits and become aware of the challeges that being out and about can pose. Feedback has been very positive.

If you are part of a group that would like road safety workshops, please contact us to discuss your requirements.

As always we were accompanied by everyone's favourite road safety symbol Debra the Zebra  who brings a smile to the primary school pupils while delivering a very serious message. We visited over 30 schools!
