Our story

Founded in 1993, having been involved in the original pilot scheme in England for what later became the Drink Drive Rehabilitation Scheme (DDRS), we are the UK’s largest and most experienced road safety organisation.

In 2000, we gained approval from UKROEd to develop and deliver National Driver Offender Retraining Scheme (NDORS) courses on behalf of UK police forces, which was a significant step forward for the business. Today we are appointed by 14 UK police forces to deliver the National Speed Awareness retraining. 

In 2007, we became TTC Group (UK), having acquired Cycle Experience Limited, one of the UK’s leading and largest cycle training providers and one of the first organisations to become a Bikeability scheme provider on behalf of the Department for Transport (DfT). We also extended our commitment to improving road safety amongst younger, vulnerable road users

We are the only organisation to be appointed and approved by the Secretary of State to deliver Drink Drive Rehabilitation Scheme (DDRS) courses to all UK court areas, with nearly 300 locations throughout England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

In 2016, Jim Kirkwood joined as CEO and under his stewardship, successfully led an investment process which completed in 2017, with TTC Group being acquired by private equity investors Palatine.

During this private equity investment period, TTC Group expanded our business by acquiring Business Driver Ltd and Licence Bureau Ltd, further enhancing our driver training, risk management and compliance capabilities.

Following a highly successful and productive 4-year investment period, in May 2021, TTC proudly announced the successful sale of Palatine’s equity of our organisation, entering into a new and exciting investment deal with Pricoa Private Capital, the private capital business of Prudential Financial.

We continue to grow the business across all of our core markets, helping to make the UK roads safer, "protecting people on the move".
