Road Safety Initiatives

Road Safety for Children around schools is one of the main causes we support

Grants of up to £500 per school are available to support up to 50% of the cost of any one-off road safety initiative that will improve the safety for children travelling to or from school.

Examples include, but are not limited to:

  • Body worn cameras for school crossing patrol  (with Local Authority approval)
  • Slow down signage
  • Responsible parking signage
