Our Safety Campaigns
We’ve spent nearly a century producing many of the “common sense” features of your world – the ones that will have changed, or even saved, your life!
By campaigning on issues like drink-driving, seatbelts and foam furnishings, we’ve helped to prevent millions of deaths and serious injuries. But more needs to be done. About 14,000 people are killed by accidents in the UK every year, making them the top cause of early, preventable death. As the UK’s leading safety charity, we’re keen to give more practical support to the most vulnerable.
National accident prevention strategy
