This week was Injury Prevention Week, run by the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL), which this year is focusing on children's road safety as children are preparing to go back to school.
Many children will make the journey to and from school by foot, although new research has shown that many parents are concerned about their children's level of road safety awareness.
A survey by YouGov has revealed that two-thirds of parents do not think their children have a good understanding of the dangers on our roads, while one in eight are very concerned about their children's safety when navigating the roads.
Children aged 15 and under account for around a quarter of pedestrian injuries and deaths on the road, so it's important that parents talk to their children about road safety.
So please get involved and have what could be a life-saving conversation with your children, and let's reduce the number of children injured or even killed in our roads.
