Magnavale has kindly sponsored our CAD system for the next two years, along with a very generous donation towards PPE. We are very humbled by their kindness.

We've just closed the A6024 Holme Moss due to difficult conditions because of snow. Snow is forecast across Derbyshire during the day so more roads, especially on higher routes in the Peak District, could close later. Gritters are out on all the high routes at the moment.

If you as a driver think using a phone whilst driving is ok, click the link. See the devastation and death it causes. Not just to the victims & their families, but also emergency workers who pick the pieces up! Leave the phone alone. #RoadSafety bbc.com/news/uk-england-tyne…

Give @dharford79 a follow. Expect some wit occasionally, but primarily you will get some good education in #Roadsafety ... and the odd debate too on some key safety issues
I’ve now surpassed 17,000 followers. Totally over the moon that education of #RoadSafety is getting out there. But, without you wonderful lot, this wouldn’t be possible. Thank you so so much to everyone involved in sharing vital messages. It means a lot. #ThankYou

With temps running higher there is not only risk to life but infrastructure too. We don't build things to deal with these temps ... Mediterranean locations are built for the sun etc please do take extra care
