Child Safety Week

This article has been brought to you by Slough Borough Council's Early Years and Prevention Childcare Development Co-ordinator, Clare Thompson, for the attention of Early Year Providers, PVI Settings, Schools with Nursery Classes and Nursery Schools.

Child Safety Week is run by Child Accident Prevention Trust to raise awareness of the risks of child accidents and how they can be prevented. We provide a range of resources to help practitioners run local activities and events and promote safety messages in a fun and engaging way.

Events are held by a range of different organisations and individuals, including children’s centres, childminders, fire and rescue teams, hospitals, schools and many more.

This years’ Child Safety Week runs from Monday 3rd June to Sunday 9th June 2019

The theme is Family life today: where’s the risk? It highlights the new dangers facing families today from our modern lifestyles and offers simple solutions to keep children safe.  Make sure you download this year's free Action Pack or order CAPT resources to get the conversation started with the parents and families you work with.
