Posted 28 March 2023 — Anyone
We are sharing this information on behalf of RoSPA
The RoSPA Road Safety team would like to invite you to a presentation about their new resources for young motorcycle riders, via Teams, in advance of its launch on 3rd April. The session will take place on Friday, March 31st from 10:00-10:45. They’ll speak to you about the campaign they have planned and talk you through their approach and rationale before they go live. As a valued stakeholder, they want to give you the opportunity to hear more about our resources and ask any questions you may have ahead of the launch. They will also be providing a stakeholder toolkit after the session, which includes information on how you can support the campaign.
Sadly, compared to other groups using motorised transport, motorcyclists have a disproportionately high risk of being involved in a crash. Novice riders, in particular, are at a higher risk of being involved in a collision than more experienced motorcyclists. Nationally, a 19 year old male has twice the rate of being killed or seriously injured as a 40 year old man, per capita. Their new resources and campaign encourage new riders to skill up, providing advice and support for the learning to ride process, preparing themselves and their bike for the ride and developing their riding skills.
