In communities across the nation, the quest for safer roads for our children gains momentum each year with an inspiring initiative: Brake's Kids Walk. This vital event champions the right of every child to walk safely within their community.
Set for Wednesday, 19th June 2024, Brake’s Kids Walk is an eagerly anticipated event where thousands of primary school children will take to the streets. The walk is not just a lesson in road safety; it's a loud, clear call for the right to make safe and healthy journeys, a message every bit as important as the steps taken.
Why your participation matters?
The staggering reality that on average, six children are killed or seriously injured on Britain's roads every day highlights an urgent need for action. Brake's Kids Walk aims to tackle this head-on by teaching children about the dangers they face and the benefits of walking, all while rallying the community to protect its youngest members.
By signing up for the 2024 walk, you'll receive a FREE action pack filled with lesson plans, assemblies, activities, and posters designed to make organizing and participating a breeze. It's a fantastic opportunity to promote road safety and support Brake, a charity dedicated to supporting families devastated by road crashes.
Last year's success and looking ahead
Reflecting on the previous year, over 110,000 children from more than 720 schools and nurseries joined Brake's cause, a testament to the initiative's growing impact. Accompanied by a call for safer speed limits around schools, the event is a powerful reminder of the difference we can make together.
