What we do
CAPT's work stops children being killed, disabled or seriously injured in accidents - without wrapping them in cotton wool.

Child safety advice to families
•We give free child safety advice to parents and carers on our website, as well as online quizzes and activities on popular safety topics.
•We distribute family-friendly resources like picture booklets, leaflets, posters and DVDs. Staff working with families can buy these from our shop, and distribute them to parents and carers in their local communities.
•We spread key safety messages and help change behaviour through our safety campaigns. We reach millions of children, young people, parents and grandparents UK-wide through Child Safety Week. One in ten parents surveyed made their children safer from serious accidents because of this work.

We support over 25,000 frontline staff UK-wide who work with children, young people, and their families. We provide:

•Factsheets, good practice guides and child safety resources for professionals.
•Monthly email newsletters packed with the latest safety information and advice.
