The briefing will provide an update on the latest issues affecting tyre safety awareness and attendees will be the first to see the materials and resources available to support October’s annual Tyre Safety Month. Details on guest speakers will be announced in due course.

Stuart Jackson, chairman of TyreSafe, said: “The briefing is TyreSafe’s flagship event of the year, providing a platform to directly address supporters and welcome newcomers who wish to join the campaign to raise awareness of the dangers of defective and illegal tyres. The focal point of the briefing is the launch of TyreSafe’s dedicated Tyre Safety Month materials which provide the resources and inspiration for much of the national campaigning each October. However, the opportunity to meet and share ideas with colleagues, and catch up on all the latest issues in TyreSafe’s 10th anniversary year, makes the Tyre Safety Month briefing 2016 a must-attend event.”

All road safety stakeholders are invited but spaces are limited and will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. Attendance is free with the briefing starting at 2pm following a networking lunch. Places can be reserved using the online booking form at www.tyresafe.org or by contacting [email protected].

Attendees of the briefing are also invited to join the TyreSafe Awards ceremony, which takes place later in the evening of the 14 July.
