Annual road safety event to return for seventh year in Keith

Rrrrallye promoting road safety for young drivers.

Road safety awareness for young drivers is once again taking centre stage at an annual event in Keith this summer.

The annual ‘Rrrrallye’ event in the Moray town has been organised for several years in memory of Stuart Harper, who was killed when a car in which he was a passenger left the road and hit a tree in 2008.

This year will be the seventh time the Rrrrallye has been held at the Keith Community Sports and Leisure Centre and once again will feature a collection of vehicles and motorbikes from different clubs and individuals from throughout the north east.

A spokeswoman said: “The Rrrrallye has become very popular over the years and this year we again have craft and information stalls in the hall along with teas and home-bakes.

“There will also be entertainment in a marquee while the day includes a 5k race. All proceeds raised will be used to issue driving course vouchers to young people aged 17-25. We will also be able to fund Roadwise Driving Training for 14-17 year olds.”

The 2015 Rrrrallye takes place on Sunday, June 14 from 10am until 4pm. Anyone who would like to book a stall at the event or wishes to display their vehicle is asked to contact the Rrrrallye team on Rrrrallye@live.co.uk or by calling Linda on 01542 887717 or Raymond on 07788 560308.
