Older Drivers Forum for Glos 13 November "Driving Safely for Longer



News

The next FREE online webinar in this very successful series will be held on Saturday 13 November .

This will be held on Zoom, from 10:00am - 11:00am. If you would like to take part please send an email to register to odfglos@gmail.com

The Story So Far

One of the groups most isolated by lockdown is also the most at risk on Gloucestershire’s roads, once lockdown lifts. That is according to Gloucestershire’s Older Drivers Forum, which suggests that drivers are more at risk of serious collisions as they age, due to the pressures added by the Covid-19 lockdown.

As England entered its second lockdown of 2020, The Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner  worked alongside Gloucestershire Constabulary and Gloucestershire Older Drivers Forum as part of its commitment to Safe and Social Roads – a priority of PCC  latest Police and Crime Plan.

These groups have already hosted several FREE online webinars in the last nine months offering support to families concerned about the driving abilities of older relatives, or for those drivers feeling like they are losing confidence behind the wheel. These have all been very well attended.

Fundraising for charities and helping members of our local community are just two of the reasons why people join Rotary. Friendship, fellowship and having fun are almost as important.
