Had a fantastic time visiting the National Logistics Academy at Mantra Learning yesterday morning to see the brilliant work they’re doing to combat the huge HGV driver shortage that we face.
It’s clear that the Government should be doing much more to combat the driver shortage and come up with a clear plan that doesn’t just move a bottle neck from one part of the sector to another.
Yesterday I heard about how the Government’s plans to recruit more examiners means that places like Mantra are at risk of losing their highly skilled instructors.
