About This Campaign
Road Safety Week 2016 runs from 21st-27th November, and it aims to inspire communities to take action on road safety during the Week and beyond.
Teachers often comment that children who walk or cycle to school arrive brighter and more ready to learn than those driven by car, and a recent US study showed a positive link between physical activity and performance in school tests. Just 15 minutes cycling to and from school could make a real difference to your child's fitness, establishing habits of healthy activity that could be life-long.
The campaign reinforces road safety messages with children and young people, and their parents and carers.
