Child Safety Week 2024

Child Safety Week 2024 | Monday 3rd - Sunday 9th June

Child Safety Week is the Child Accident Prevention Trust’s annual community education campaign, acting as a catalyst for thousands of safety conversations and activities UK-wide. The organisation helps families build confidence and skills in managing risks to children’s safety.

At Care Network, we also work with many families to ensure that parents and children can live happy, safe and healthy lives.

This year’s theme: Safety. Sorted!

Families should feel confident that, with one small change, they can stop a serious accident and be clear what they need to do to keep their children safe.

That’s why, for this years Child Safety Week, the theme is: Safety. Sorted!

For families, the Child Accident Prevention Trust has a useful, easy to follow, free parent pack that offers simple changes that can fit into busy routines.

You can also download our Care Network Child Safety booklet here, with lots of tips & advice on how to help keep children of all ages safe and well at home.
