15 YEARS OF LIFE SAVING PRESENTATIONS

That's a wrap for 2022. The ROADwhyz team had a bit to deal with this year including the dreaded COVID 19 lockdowns and cancellations. We managed to present to 15 high schools throughout Newcastle and the Hunter Valley. We also held two free community events, one in Newcastle where 60 people attended and one in Maitland where 50 people attended, both held as part of Rural road safety month. We also managed a couple of trade colleges in Maitland. All up The ROADwhyz team presented to approximately 3000 current and potential young drivers as well as a few full licenced drivers. On a personal note I was proud to receive the OAM for my work with road safety and community but it would not be possible without the passionate support of all the first responder's who volunteer their time to present a powerful message about 'Choice & Consequence'. This is what makes ROADwhyz what it is. We look forward to returning to our school in 2023.

October 2022 saw ROADwhyz co-founder Michelle Davis presented with the Order of Australia medal for service to road safety, and to the community. " I feel very honoured to have a wonderful team of first responders who are equally passionate about ensuring we educate young drivers about the consequences of poor choices within a motor vehicle". Michelle is also co-founder of the H.O.P.E Support group which supports parents who have lost children.

2020 draws to an end

Posted by ROADwhyz on December 2, 2020 at 6:35 PM

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to pop in and say a huge THANK YOU to the schools who were able to hold their presentations this year before the world changed due to COVID. It’s certainly been a bit crazy, our presentations dropped down to just a few, but at least we got to present to some and hopefully changed a few behaviours and attitudes. Nothing much to report in numbers or milestones for the program but at least we hung in there and did a few.

The RW team was rocked this year, when in November we lost one of our magnificant team members, Paul Alexander, our AMBO MAN. We are all shattered to have lost our wonderful mate Paul, he always made his presence felt and endeared himself to all students. He has certainly left a space in our hearts, and we will always fly the RW flag with him in mind. 

The team aims to kick off next year around March, fingers crossed COVID will be settled. Should your school  wish for us to come please just email through this website. 

On a personal note I thank all the first responders who give up their time to share their insight into this important issue, without them the RW program would not be what it is today. 

We all WISH you a Merry Christmas and hope you and your families have a peaceful Chrissy, with wonderful opportunities to create t new memories.

Remeber you will be mmissed if you dont make it home..

Regards Michelle 

R.I.P. Paul A.. "AMBO MAN"
