Every member of the family was in a good place and 'everything was perfect' when tragedy struck. Speaking as part of an ongoing campaign to raise awareness of road traffic collisions, Leanne Vaughan recalled the final moments with her daughter birminghammail.co.uk/black-country/…

Represented RoadPeace at the FLC Conference today. Spoke on why families bereaved through road death should be asked for feedback on their FLO experience. Brilliant presentations from Deborah Sleightholme, Linda Magistris and Joanne Early CEO SAMM National too. Privilege to meet these amazing ladies.
