Choking
Choking usually tops parents’ fears when it comes to accidents. And rightly so. But knowing some simple steps puts you in the driving seat and lessens the worry.
Dog safety
The bond between your child and dog can bring fun and happiness to family life. But any dog can bite if they feel they have no other option so it's important to know what you can do to prevent it from happening.
Drowning
It’s scary to think about but drowning doesn’t happen like it does in the movies. A drowning child doesn’t splash about or cry for help. They slip quietly under the water, often unnoticed. But, once you understand how and where drowning happens, there are things you can do to prevent it.
Falls
While most falls aren’t serious – active children often fall over – some falls can lead to death or long-term disability. So it’s important to learn what you can do to prevent serious falls.
Poisoning
Suspected poisoning is one of the most common reasons for young children to be taken to A&E. Discover ways to reduce the risks and keep children safe with our free resources.
