The UK’s leader in delivering driver rehabilitation courses, TTC, has been awarded an industry-first 10-year contract by multiple police forces across the South West, including Devon & Cornwall, Avon & Somerset and Wiltshire.
As a single provider to South West forces, TTC will provide inclusive access to a suite of courses for business and leisure drivers from the region, either in person or online. However, crucially, the company will also collaborate directly with each police force to support their specific road safety initiatives, including Devon & Cornwall’s Vizion Zero ambition.
TTC is the UK’s largest provider of UK Road Offender Education (UKROEd) accredited courses. Nationwide it has over 600 trainers who have been recruited at a local level to ensure they have community knowledge. TTC courses offered to South West motorists through the contract include ‘Speed Awareness’, ‘Motorway Awareness’, ‘Safe and Considerate Driving’, ‘What’s Driving Us’ and ‘Rider Risk Awareness’ – a course designed specifically for motorcyclists.
Sharon Haynes, Police Director at TTC comments, “Our relationship with South West police forces began in 2011 and we are immensely proud to remain their trusted training partner today and for the next 10 years. Whilst the quality of the courses we deliver form the foundations of this relationship, our ability to provide equality of choice to support the diversity of their community is crucial. A comprehensive choice of classroom venues helps to accommodate those living in rural locations, with flexible course timings and online learning ensuring accessibility for all.”
TTC’s focus on bringing social value to all its police force partners is unmatched. In addition to trainers being recruited locally, helping to boost the area’s employment rate, it utilises community-based venues, where possible, to generate revenue to reinvest back into the region. Members of TTC’s trainer community are also active volunteers supporting community and environmental projects.
Jim Kirkwood, Deputy Chair at TTC, concludes, “We pride ourselves on delivering a consistently high-quality service which directly makes a positive impact to improving road safety across the UK, and this contract win is a testament to that commitment. This is a huge boost for our business, recognising the dedication and professionalism of our trainers, our operational staff, and our management team. We all look forward to working collaboratively with each force to support their road safety and community engagement needs for the future.”
