Euro NCAP - why there is a discrepancy between car and van safety features
Matthew Avery is Strategic Development Director for Euro NCAP - the organisation responsible for giving safety ratings to all new cars, vans and trucks.

In this episode, we discuss:
Why there is a discrepancy between car and van safety features
What the key active safety features are and how they work
How the manufacturers have responded to van safety ratings
What the new van safety ratings mean for fleet operators
What fleet operators need to know when ordering new vans

Menopause: what you need to know & how to support
Show notes: Louise Clarkson, National Highways Customer Services
For this episode, I’m handing the reins over to my colleague, Anne-Marie Penny of National Highways and the Driving for Better Business Programme Manager. She’s talking to Louise Clarkson, who is Operational Assurance and Capability Business Services Team Leader for National Highways’ Customer Services Division.
Louise founded the Menopause and Hormonal Conditions Network for National Highways. This was a fascinating discussion covering how menopause can impact a woman’s ability to drive for work, the impact on a menopausal woman’s partner who may also drive for work, the need for a corporate menopause
policy, sharing corporate best practice across different sectors, and finally, Louise’s award for the valuable work that she’s done to support others.
