  • "It was a great experience for all the students. They were engaged throughout and they used the VR technology as well as the beer goggles to experience a crash and what it would be like to drive drunk! SmartLearner, who hosted the event were very organised and gave a great overall explanation about the importance of safe driving"

  • "The content was relevant and good. They students really liked the interactive part of the workshop. They were engaged and interested throughout the sessions. Your delivery was very good, a mixture of discussing powerpoints and getting their feedback. The video clips were very supportive of the message being put across and particularly the video footage of officers coming across people who were drunk. Something the fire service did which was quite powerful was do a role play scenario when the person that came in to present got students to come up and act out what they would do if they were in a car with someone and were uncomfortable with their driving. Also the interactive VR headsets are really engaging, which we spoke about. Overall the sessions were really good and we were really grateful for you coming in. We would certainly like to work with BYLC in the future, we will certainly have a think if there is anything else that would be helpful. Please also get in touch with us if there is anything you collaborate on that you think will be useful."

  • Many thanks for all your effort last night, it went down well and the message got through to the kids. I have had messages from parents acknowledging what you did and the important nature of what your are getting across. "
