Brake has called for lower speed limits on roads where children travel to and from school.
On Wednesday 11 June more than 85,000 children from more than 600 schools across the UK are taking part in Brake’s Kids Walk campaign.
More than 16 primary schoolchildren are harmed on UK roads every day. More than half (55%) of parents would like their children to walk and wheel to school more; many say they can’t because roads are too busy (40%) and traffic is too fast (28%).
Brake’s Kids Walk is a national event to help primary schoolchildren learn about road safety and shout out for their right to make safe and healthy journeys.
