Using TEAMS, this quarterly webinar is focused on the work of Sophie Lyden. 

Under the bonnet

Sophie is a young garage owner from Morecambe who has been working on her won to improve young driver road safety in her locality. 

She got involved as a result of seeing alarming cases of negligence in the maintenance of vehicles and tyres by young drivers. Looking to save money, these drivers often skimp on t basics that keep them safe on the road. They are often ignorant of the very real dangers they are putting themselves in.

A fresh approach

Sophie initiated a series of social media awareness campaigns to provide valuable support and guidance. These were particularly aimed at new drivers, through her platform FreshDriversUK.

As well as offering a whole wealth of advice to new drivers around vehicle and tyre maintenance she also offers advice to those who may feel uncertain or uncomfortable in a garage environment.  Sophie had forged partnerships with numerous road safety organisations and emergency services to get her messages as far and wide as possible.
