The Safekids Campaign
Every July Safekids New Zealand launches child-safety campaigns focusing on the prevention of two specific unintentional childhood injuries.
The Safekids Campaign is a collaborative child safety programme nationally co-ordinated by Safekids New Zealand in partnership with government and non-government organisations, sponsors and over 80 community-based Coalitions throughout New Zealand.
The 2010/ 2011 Safekids Campaign focuses on Motor Vehicle Child Passenger Safety and Burns Prevention/ Fire Safety.
Burns Prevention and Fire Safety Burns is a leading cause of injury for young children. Of 1 to 2 year olds admitted to hospital due to severe burns, over half are caused by spilt hot drinks (tea and coffee) and other liquids.
