, is your knowledge up to date?

It's quite scary to think we're already in July and already over half way through the year of 2023!

Festival season has well and truly started🎪 How many of you either went to, or watched snippets from Glastonbury last weekend? The sun was shining and it looked like an incredible weekend. Although I'm not sure camping in that heat would have been much fun!🔥

We are now into the summer holiday months, so please ensure you let your local branch know your availability for the coming months so they can update their records and get you out on the road.🚛

I hope you enjoy this addition of The Extra Mile, we'd love to hear your feedback!

Wednesday 28th June saw Kieran Smith, CEO, and Katy Tyler, Marketing Manager, travel up to Warwickshire to attend the Road Transport Expo. The site was very impressive with hundreds of trucks and stalls covering multiple aspects of the industry all the way from tools to training.

We'd recommend a visit next year, it's free to attend and is great to share the space with so many others within the industry, all with similar goals and interests.

You can read more about the Road Transport Expo on their website here.

Our Driver of the Month for July is Simon Ward from our Andover branch. Branch Manager, Stuart, nominated Simon as he is a self-managing, reliable and hard working driver.

Simon is a Class 1 driver who works 5/6 days per week with one of our clients, the client manages his hours and shift start times but he's communicative daily with the branch to let them know when he's working, which is much appreciated!

As a big “THANK YOU” for being a Driver Require Superhero we will be sending Simon a £25 Amazon gift card. Thank you for all your hard work Simon and for Going the Extra Mile, we are delighted to have you part of the Driver Require Team.
