Winter has now well and truly arrived, with Christmas now less than a month away and the temperatures dropping noticeably. It's those dropping temperatures that can cause issues though, with ice and freezing fog. Be aware of the risks and plan accordingly. Simple things, like allowing yourself an extra ten minutes at the start to defrost your car can make a big difference.

Our Autumn/Winter Course is now finished and we start to look towards our Winter/Spring Course. Our first Sunday will be the 12th January 2020, so if you know anyone who would be interested or are looking for a Christmas gift then please bear this date in mind.

On the topic of new courses, we are still offering our wonderful discounts for drivers aged 17-35 and drivers aged 60+. If you know anyone who would interested in taking part in our next course please put them in touch with us and we will be happy to provide more information.

We are also currently looking for Group members to join our committee. This would be a 12 month commitment and we meet for an hour and a half on the first Monday of each month. There is much to do and we would welcome additional support in the areas of general admin, recruitment, publicity and social media engagement.

If you would like to have more involvement in the running of the Group, please get in touch. Before committing you would be more than welcome to attend one of our committee meetings to get a feel for how we run the meetings.

That’s all from me, I hope you and your families have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Here’s to your continued safe, systematic driving.

Tom Field
Group Chairman
