Great start claire newstead for #RoadSafetyweek supporting Brake, the road safety charity

Do you know the stopping distances when driving? The faster a vehicle is travelling, the longer it takes to stop. ⚠️ 30mph = 23 metres ⚠️ 20mph = 12 metres Slowing down gives you more time to avoid a crash. #VisionZero #RoadSafetyWeek Vision Zero - West Yorkshire Brake, the road safety charity



Great work claire newstead for Brake, the road safety charity in #RoadSafetyWeek

Here is my article about #RoadSafety issues on #ruralroads for #horseriders thanks to The British Horse Society for providing the data.

Not long to go until our #LetsTalkAboutGrief event on Tuesday 5 December. Join us in Liverpool during #GriefAwarenessWeek, alongside INQUEST, Alfie's Squad, Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation, WAY Widowed and Young, Survivors of Bereavement by Suicide, StrongMen-Org-UK and Scotty's L Soldiers.

my colleague claire newstead who specialises in fatal incidents is supporting Sandy Noble’s family in these tragic circumstances. It is hoped that the Inquest will provide further answers for the family.
