Children in Manchester are more likely to suffer a serious burn than children anywhere else in the UK.
That’s why we’ve created free resources for groups in Manchester to help keep children safe from burns.
You can order:
- Handouts to give to families
- Posters to display in your setting
- An education pack for group leaders
Add code BURNSMAN to your order for free delivery.
Due to limited funds we can only offer these free resources to groups working in Manchester. If you work outside the city, we are sadly unable to process your order.
NOTE – please order as many handouts as you think you might need to avoid more than one delivery.
