It’s easy for our mind to wander when we’re driving. For people who spend a lot of time behind the wheel – whether you’re a long-haul heavy vehicle driver or part of your organisation’s sales or client support team, isolation can become your worst enemy, allowing distraction to take hold as you ruminate on your thoughts. In this webinar, David Westgate  will outline practical ways to stay focussed on the job at hand – driving – and draw on his own ‘lived experience’ to explore the link between mental health, road risks and safer driving.
