Child Safety Week is for professionals in health visiting

CAPT Child Safety Week 2016

Child Safety Week (6-12 June 2016) is CAPT’s (Child Accident Prevention Trust’s) annual campaign to reduce serious childhood accidents. The Week offers those working in health visiting a opportunity to engage with families to reduce the number of local children suffering serious accidents, one of health visitors’ 6 high impact areas for change.

Last year, Child Safety Week activities reached over 450,000 parents, carers, children and young people nationwide. It offers an opportunity for health visiting work to stand out and have a visible impact, particularly important in the current climate.

With your help, we can reach even more families with important safety messages.
