Welcome to the Time And Place Website.
Time and Place is a charity set up by a group of driving instructors
and two bereaved mothers in the Forest of Dean
In 2005, 19 young people were killed on
the Forest roads!
We aim to give young drivers a
thought provoking presentation about choices they can make when driving
a vehicle and the tragic consequences of making the wrong ones.
To achieve this we
use:
Hard-hitting video clips of road
accidents
An informative talk from
a road safety officer about the consequences of drinking & driving,
using a mobile phone and driving at excessive speed
An account from each of
the two bereaved mothers, who talk about the real life consequences of
losing a child in a road accident
We believe that:
We will reduce the number of deaths
and injuries amongst our young drivers
We will reach as many
students as possible
We will make very young
children aware of the need for road safety
We will build a
driver education centre
We want Gloucestershire, and particularly
the Forest Of Dean, to improve all aspects of driving standards by
having the best road education facility in the country. We have had the
full backing of local MP Mark Harper who is helping us in our campaign.
The
Driver Eduatcation Facility will
benefit all road users, young, old, cyclists, pedestrians and drivers
