Safety Central

It’s been a busy couple of days with follow-up visits!

Around three months after their initial visit to the Centre, we head back into schools to revisit key learning, retake the safety quiz, and share even more important safety messages with the children.

Over the past two days, Sam has visited three Warrington schools, reaching almost 200 children from Year 2 & 5! 👏

🙌🏼 A huge thank you to Ravenbank School, Brook Acre Community Primary School, and Chapelford Village Primary School for welcoming us back. We love seeing how much the children remember and building on their knowledge to help keep them safe🙌🏼

🤩 Last night we had the pleasure of welcoming 1st Davenham Scouts to undertake our fun Escape to Safety activity. They demonstrated great team work and problem solving skills, and left with new and improved knowledge around important safety messages! 🙌🏼

🚸 Child Safety Week is the Child Accident Prevention Trust’s annual community education campaign, helping families build confidence and skills in managing the real risks to children’s safety..

Here at Safety Central we help to educate expectant parents about important safety messages through our new 'Safer Starts' programme, and also thousands of Primary age children every year from across Cheshire !🤩

We were really impressed with the children's enthusiasm and their knowledge retention!🤩 We are glad you had a great day!

Y5 & Y6 visited Safety Central today and had an amazing first day back learning how to keep safe both at home and when out and about! Great life skills and hopefully they have shared their learning at home! 👏🏻

Great water safety sessions on offer🛟

Following the recent water-related tragedies across the UK, we are offering additional virtual water safety sessions to schools, youth clubs, and community centres across Cheshire, helping equip young people with the knowledge and confidence to stay safe around water.

The presentation is delivered virtually, free of charge, and lasts approximately 45 minutes.

Sessions are interactive, engaging, and age-appropriate for young people aged 11-18. They are delivered by experienced professionals committed to helping young people make safer choices around water.

The session covers:

- Recognising potential water hazards

☀️ As part of Cheshire Safety Day today, Clare was at The Groves in Chester alongside firefighters and colleagues from Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service.

It was a great opportunity to speak with members of the public about staying safe this summer- the many young passing visitors had great fun in the fire engine too!😊 🚒
