The personal stories of Road Trauma Survivors can help shape the beliefs and behaviours of drivers who attend the groups:
Those involved in a traumatic experience often have a strong need to share their experience to make a difference and by doing so this gives them purpose and meaning. It assists them in creating a new post trauma story, identity and role and assists in their own recovery and healing. This workshop will look at the benefits of those who share their personal stories of road trauma and the model it is done within so as not to retraumatise themselves or those they share with.
