Protecting children from accidents requires more than just the right equipment. Simon Vevers shows where to go to get the training and awareness to keep children safe The Child Accident Prevention Trust believes child accidental injury prevention needs to be addressed to the physical environment, behaviour and attitudes, and that it is not always solved just by buying the right equipment.
