The Children's Traffic Club is a free national club aimed at 3 - 5 year old children. An invitation is sent to parents around the time of the child's 3 rd birthday. Following enrolment, a series of workbooks will be sent seeking parental co-operation in basic Road Safety instruction. A range of other support material is available to support the club.

Training sessions can be arranged to suit the needs of specific groups on the most effective use of Children's Traffic Club materials.
In-car safety
It is estimated that over 60% of child safety seats are incorrectly fitted. Literature is available for parents wishing to find out more about in-car safety and occasional promotions are organised where safety seats can be given a basic safety check.
Support Activities
A one-off talk to a group of children on Road Safety is of very limited long-term effect. However, where a group has been working on a programme of Road Safety a member of the Road Safety staff can visit the group and provide a practical or role-play presentation
