An upcoming free driver training course facilitated by the Energy Saving Trust aims to help Rochdale businesses save up to 15% on fuel expenses and lower vehicle maintenance costs.

The course is being organised by Groundwork Oldham & Rochdale who have invited specialist driving instructors from DriveSense to teach delegates about the benefits of fuel efficient driving.

The instructors will carry out 50 minute training sessions with one participant, in either a van or car. The delegate will complete an initial drive which will be monitored by a data logger to highlight areas where fuel efficiency can be improved. A second drive will be carried out to apply the principles learned during the session.

There are two Smarter Driver Training sessions taking place - Tuesday 21st February at The Groundwork Environment Centre, Shaw Road, Oldham OL1 4AW and Wednesday 22nd February at Groundwork Bury & Bolton, 48 Blackburn Street, Radcliffe, M26 1NQ. The session is free to attend but places are limited so registration is required. For more details or to register please contact Jean Maxwell by email jean.maxwell@groundwork.org.uk or call 0161 624 1444.
