ERJ staff report (TP)
Colchester, UK – Stuart Jackson has been re-elected as the chairman of UK not-for-profit road safety campaign group TyreSafe. The appointment sees Jackson start his third term as the head of organisation which he has led since 2010.
"I'm honoured to have been re-elected by my colleagues to such a fantastic and worthwhile position," he said. "We've achieved so much as an organisation over the last few years, yet there is still a great deal of work to do, so I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to continue playing such an important role."
TyreSafe was established in 2006 with the sole aim of raising awareness about the dangers associated with illegal and defective tires. Since then, its campaigning has helped reduce the number of people killed or seriously injured each year in the UK in a tire related accident by 36 percent.
"Last year was TyreSafe's busiest and most successful to date so it's important that we don't lose this momentum. I remain as excited as ever about the challenge ahead and look forward continuing to make our roads a safer place," said Jackson.
