Hard-hitting road safety show seeks new sponsors<br />

A long running road safety show which has helped inform generations of young people across Grampian is looking for sponsors to<br />

help it continue in 20<strong>18</strong>. Safe Drive Stay Alive has been attended by all senior school pupils in the north-east of Scotland for the last<br />

thirteen years.The hard-hitting stage show features real life testimony from the emergency services who regularly deal with road<br />

collisions and from members of the public whose lives have been affected by road collisions in an extreme and profound way.<br />

It leaves a lasting impression on all who see it, with the intention of cutting the level of death and injury which is seen on local<br />

roads. Tens of thousands of young people about to learn to drive, or who have already passed their test, have benefitted from support<br />

by sponsors over the years.<br />

Nexen Petroleum UK are the only confirmed sponsor of the 20<strong>18</strong> show. Nexen has been the main sponsor in previous years, however<br />

to ensure the event can continue this year Safe Drive Stay Alive would like to hear from other community-minded businesses or<br />

individuals.<br />

Nexen’s UK Managing Director, Ray<br />

Riddoch, said: “At Nexen, we put Safety<br />

First both at work and in the wider community.<br />

Our partnership with Safe Drive<br />

Stay Alive illustrates this commitment<br />

perfectly. Safe Drive Stay Alive doesn’t<br />

pull any punches in showing young people<br />

the reality of the consequences of<br />

road collisions. The real life testimonies<br />

of those affected is a moving and powerful<br />

way to drive home the importance of<br />

Safety First on our roads.<br />

“We would wholeheartedly encourage<br />

more local businesses to get involved to<br />

support Safe Drive, Stay Alive in its mission<br />

to educate young people at a critical<br />

point in their driving career and to help<br />

reduce the number of deaths and injuries<br />

on our roads.”<br />

Chair of the Aberdeenshire Community<br />

Safety Partnership, Margaret-Jane Cardno,<br />

said: “It’s really hard to state the influence<br />

this show has on the young people<br />

who see it. They really do walk away<br />

with a heightened sense of awareness of<br />

the risks associated with driving.”<br />
