Road Safety Leadership Days
Young people making a difference in their communities
This year we delivered 4 Road Safety Leadership Days for students involved with SADD, and/or passionate about leadership and road safety.
The aim of these events was to gather together young leaders from regions together to collaborate on local road safety issues, and give young people an opportunity to build their leadership skills.
These events were a fantastic way to gather insightful and valuable perspectives from youth on some real life issues their generation is facing. Check out below for more from these events.
We’re hoping to bring these Road Safety Leadership Days back in 2023 so watch this space!
