TRS Training offers car licence holders and Category C drivers around Bristol individual Class 1 licence training, with morning sessions and the DVSA practical test included in the course price.

St Helens, United Kingdom, October 22, 2026 /PressCable/ -- TRS Training has announced one-to-one HGV Category C+E licence driver training courses at its Bristol driving school in Avonmouth, preparing learners to drive articulated vehicles up to 44 tonnes professionally.

The announcement comes amid a UK shortage of HGV drivers. Logistics UK’s 2026 Employment and Skills Report found that the number of HGV drivers fell from 313,000 to 283,000 in a year, while Department for Transport figures show 26% of HGV businesses reported driver vacancies in late 2025. TRS Training seeks to address this by giving new and experienced drivers a direct route to a Class 1 licence.
For drivers starting from a car licence, the nine-day car licence to Category C+E course costs £2,880. Learners must hold an HGV C+E provisional licence and have passed the Part 1a and Part 1b theory tests, with a £195 HGV Starter Package available for these steps.
Category C licence holders can take the five-day Category C to Category C+E course at £1,700, which employers can also use to upskill staff. Both prices include VAT and DVSA test fees.

Sessions run from 8 am to 12 pm, with the final day reserved for the test. Training covers vehicle and trailer walkaround checks, coupling and uncoupling, urban, rural and motorway driving, reversing with a trailer, and managing articulation, swing and off-tracking. The DVSA assessment includes vehicle safety questions, the Module 3A reversing exercise and the Module 3B on-road test. Tests are booked only once the instructor judges the learner ready.
The school operates from Western Approach Distribution Park, near the M4, M5 and M49, with practical tests taken at the Newport LGV test centre. Instructor Barry Powell, who has more than 15 years of industry experience, trains learners in a Mercedes Actros articulated vehicle and a DAF rigid truck.

Global tourism is entering a new era of strategic choices. The industry is still generating economic growth, but geopolitical instability, climate pressures, investment challenges and technological disruption are testing its long-term competitiveness. The numbers reveal a paradox. According to the World Economic Forum’s Travel & Tourism Development Index 2026, 92% of the 110 economies assessed have improved their conditions for tourism development since 2024. The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) forecasts a US$12 trillion contribution to the global economy in 2026, supporting around 376 million jobs.
“I think about quitting all the time,” says Jordan Leung, known to his Instagram followers as @69ranch. As one of Hong Kong’s most prominent stand-up comedians to emerge in recent years, Leung’s pessimism is surprising. “I don’t wanna make social media content,” the 33-year-old admits. “Now I’m just fixated on likes and stuff … I don’t know how much longer I can do this.” Sitting directly across the table from him, it is not always easy to tell when Leung is being sincere or performing his...

For a while, the blueprint for a serious wellness trip looked pretty much the same everywhere. A flight to somewhere warm, a resort with a view of jungle or terraced rice paddies, a treatment menu borrowing names from ancient traditions, and enough linen to last a lifetime. Scotland was never really part of that picture. It was the place people went for whisky, castles and rain, not the place they went to reset. Then this summer, Scotland’s men’s football team appeared at their first World Cup...
