Unfortunately I never got to meet you Lou, however with your kind words of advice, videos and fund raising it always felt we all knew you. Genuinely a sad loss you’re no longer here but you will never be out of the minds and thoughts of THOUSANDS of people for a VERY VERY long time… Sleep Tight Lou
“Even when you are struggling to believe in yourself, I believe in you”
Adored, respected, loved, admired, a true aspiration I will carry with me in every lesson and a voice I will forever hear in my head.
A true “professional” with the biggest heart
Lou was a force of nature, with a drive as big as her heart. Bringing the driving instructor industry together to do good for each other and a fantastic Charity. With the Big Learner Relay friendships where formed from the furthest corners of the UK. Like this picture taken at lands end. I didn’t we look good in Spots. A truly lovely person that I will miss terribly.
You were one of the people that have changed my life forever. R.I.P Lou
A small person with a big personality, bigger smile and even bigger heart.
You put so much time, effort and passion into everything you did and it showed. You have that ability to bring the out the best in people and made a group of people who usually sit in their cars to work as a collective either for the Big Learner Relay, Car Fest and even in your training courses.
All your work in the industry will live on and you HAVE changed peoples lives!
RIP Lou, thoughts with you and your family.
Lou, met you a few times and learnt alot from you and your workshops.
The amount of people that are leaving messages, sharing your story and simply remembering you just goes to show how much you meant to people.
May you rest in peace. X x
U were the kindest hearted person i ever met. Right from the 1st minute i met u, u put me at ease. U had a warm soul and the world will be a colder place without u. RIP sweet lady.
Heartbroken 💔 to hear that an amazing human being and general force of nature has been taken way too soon. The wonderful Lou Walsh who I was lucky enough to call a friend. She helped with my check test and I was lead car one year in the relay, also did Car Fest. We were local so saw each other out and about, and when I was down she sent me a lovely gift to brighten my day. Condolences to Blaine and family. 🦋 She is still here, we just can’t see her. xx
It came as quite a shock to hear of Lou Walsh untimely passing.
I met Lou a fair few times at various driving instructor conferences, social meets and of course the Big Learner Relay which I was involved with and will of course miss.
Lou was a fantastic lady and will be greatly missed. Condolences to Lou’s family and friends.
Kindest regards Harry
When I started on my journey to become a Driving instructor I came across Lou and Blaine’s helpful videos- I signed up to the Q&A and came to one of her courses I’ve never seen someone so committed to helping others , Lou really was an inspiration to so many people and will truly be missed by so many people x
Lou was the most amazing and inspirational person I have ever known and I got to know her through the BLR committee and saw first hand the light that shined through her she was very inspirational warm kind hearted and always had time for you and apart from all the work she put into the BLR with Blaine and the committee team she and Blaine still found time to help thousands of driving instructors and PDIs around the country with their development and on top of all that she still found time for her lovely family.
I am honoured to have known you Lou and will miss you ❤️

You may well have physically left the set, but the Badger’s will never, ever forget you.
