This year’s safety campaign will encourage drivers to check that their tyres are inflated to the correct pressure, with Halfords Autocentres playing a key role.
The network, which has over 290 Autocentres across the UK, joins a long list of TyreSafe members offer free tyre health checks.
Stuart Jackson, chairman, TyreSafe, commented: ‘It’s fantastic news to welcome Halfords Autocentres to the TyreSafe family and its membership couldn’t be better timed with tyre safety month almost upon us, which is shaping up to be our biggest and best yet.
‘Motorists already had plenty of choice for a free tyre health check but with Halfords Autocentres also on board, car owners have every opportunity to make sure that their tyres are safe and legal.’
Rory Carlin, marketing director, Halfords Autocentres, added: ‘Vehicle safety has always been a driving ethos for our business and is achieved by providing access to expert technicians, trained to the highest industry standards, at an affordable price.
‘That same commitment to safety applies to tyres, which is a growing part of our core business, so the decision to join TyreSafe was a natural extension for us. We are therefore delighted to be involved with tyre safety month and offering all car owners a free tyre health check at any Autocentre in the UK.’
