By advancing the use of helmets, cycle training, cycle lights
and reflective clothing, the charity aims to ensure young cyclists
are well equipped to take part in this healthy and environmentally
friendly form of transport.
Using what research is available, the charity is in no doubt
that cycle helmets save lives and its aim is to support young
cyclists to wear one.
The Trust works closely with road safety
officers, other NGOs, teachers, parents, police, Government
Departments
and health professionals. However, working directly with
children and young people is at the forefront of our
vision and helping to ensure as far as possible their safety
and well-being remains our primary objective.
