We recently worked with pupils from St Andrew’s CE Primary School and our customers in Oswaldtwistle to launch a new road safety project 🚗 After concerns were raised about speeding on Kay Street, the pupils created colourful signs reminding drivers to slow down. Their designs are now proudly displayed alongside a new speed bump. Customers, colleagues and the Mayor of Hyndburn joined us to celebrate this great example of community action and partnership. We hope you enjoy watching the video from the day and reading the full story here: https://lnkd.in/eB5UCABT #RoadSafety #Community #AccentHousing
