Donate to RoSPA

The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents was established more than 90 years ago and is a registered charity (Registered Charity No: 207823) whose patron is Her Majesty the Queen.

Our aim is to campaign for change, influence opinion, contribute to debate, educate and inform - for the good of all.

By providing information, advice, resources and training, RoSPA is actively involved in the promotion of safety and the prevention of accidents in all areas of life - at work, in the home, on the roads, in schools, at leisure and on (or near) water.

Our campaigns

Blind Cords Campaign

From awareness campaigns which highlight how people are killed and injured in accidents and how such accidents can be prevented, to calling for legislative change, RoSPA is committed to speaking up for safety. Take a look at our current campaigns.
