The awards, which will be presented at a luncheon on Wednesday 20th November at St Johns hotel in Solihull, will recognise the best contributions from a range of organisations around the UK in helping raise awareness about tyre safety issues during 2012 and 2013.

‘TyreSafe’s activities and campaigns have made a significant contribution to improving road safety in the UK over the last few years,’ said Stuart Jackson, chairman TyreSafe. ‘However, this success would not have been possible without the high levels of support and participation we’ve enjoyed from a growing number and wider range of organisations. This first ever awards ceremony gives us the opportunity to formally recognise these efforts as well as inspire others to do similar.’

Entry into the awards closes on 1st November, giving organisations an opportunity to include any activities or initiatives they run during October’s tyre safety month.
