LAPC extends invite to road safety professionals

Ape Theatre Company will be presenting excerpts from its forthcoming drug/drive play, ‘Pills, Thrills @ Automobiles’, at the London Accident Prevention Council’s AGM on Wednesday 30 July.

An invitation to all London RSOs, mayors and members has already been sent out but because of the great interest in this topic LAPC is extending the invitation to road safety colleagues outside of London.

Using a combination of film, animation and dialogue taken from transcripts and witnesses statements of a true story, this latest production - from the makers of ‘Too Much Punch for Judy’ - tackles the difficult issue of drugs and driving in the 16–21 year age group in a highly dramatic but sensitive way.

The theme of this year’s LAPC AGM is ‘Impairment and Driving’ and it will take the form of a mini conference, with morning presentations from Dr Paul Jackson, consultant to DfT and Roger Agombar, police liaison (DfT).

The fee for attending the whole event is £25, which will include a buffet lunch. However, there is no charge for coming along in the afternoon to see the Ape presentation.

For further details or to book a place please contact LAPC secretary, Carol Walker cewalker@btinternet.com or Chris King on 020 8891 4637.
