Welcome to the autumn 2023 series of the Project Edward podcast. My name is James Luckhurst and every week for the next couple of months I'm going to be hearing from all sorts of people relating to their role in the Safe System. Today we're starting in the middle of the countryside at Hartshill Hays country park in Warwickshire. In a moment, I'm going to be heading to the new memorial to road traffic victims, which was unveiled by Sharron Huddleston earlier in the summer. But before meeting Sharron, let's familiarise ourselves with a few people whose efforts and energy have ensured that this memorial could come into existence. It's a wet day, but hopefully no one will be put off by the rain.
