The Emergency Stop Campaign: Why It Matters to Instructors
Manage episode 485959838 series 2955965
In this episode of The Instructor Podcast, host Terry Cook kicks off the brand new monthly format with a powerful and timely discussion. He’s joined by Debbie Beadle, CEO of Fear Free, to explore the urgent need for safeguarding in the driver training industry.
Debbie shares the story behind the “Emergency Stop” campaign, which calls for driving instructors to be legally recognised as being in a position of trust under the Sexual Offences Act. They discuss why this matters, what safeguarding really involves, and how instructors can protect both their learners and themselves.
Later in the episode, Terry speaks with James Luckhurst from Project EDWARD about the Blue Light Aware campaign. They cover how instructors can prepare learners to deal with emergency vehicles safely and why those conversations could be life-saving.
This is the first episode in a new monthly format designed to go deeper into important topics affecting driving instructors. It’s essential listening for anyone who wants to raise standards, build trust, and create safer roads.
