Bright Day for Brake charity day at Telford firm
Staff from a Shropshire driver training organisation got into top gear when they wore bright and colourful clothes for a national charity event to raise awareness about road safety.
Employees from the TTC Group, who put on driver training courses for both business and individual motorists, were a shining example as they took part in a Bright Day for Brake to help educate children and adults about the importance of being seen and being safe when walking or cycling by busy roads.
Every day in the UK, six people are killed and 60 seriously injured as a result of road crashes. The aim of Bright Day for Brake was also to raise money for Brake with everyone who took part donating £1 to the national charity. TTC staff also baked cakes and dishes to exchange for donations to Brake.
TTC Group General Manager Des Morrison said: “We do have quite a young and colourful staff but they turned up trumps wearing some startling outfits and really put their heart and soul into helping Brake raise money and get over an important road safety message.”
Based at Hadley Park, Telford, the TTC Group runs the National Driver Offender Retraining Scheme - an educational alternative to prosecution for some road traffic offences. They also run speed awareness courses and are the UK’s largest provider of courses for convicted drink drivers. They also teach professional HGV drivers and company car and van drivers to ensure they comply with legislation.
Driver Safety Awareness Courses for individual motorists are also run by TTC Automotive, part of the TTC Group. For more information call 0333 8000 222 or email driver.training@ttcautomotive.co.uk or visit www.ttcautomotive.co.uk
