Every year in Victoria, approximately 35 children die and over 100,000 are treated in hospital as a result of unintentional injuries. Kidsafe Victoria exists to prevent these tragedies. Your support can help us protect your precious children.
Kidsafe Victoria is the leading independent, charitable foundation dedicated to the prevention of unintentional death, injury and associated disability to Victorian children. We believe that prevention is better than treatment, so we work tirelessly to empower families with practical information, advice and strategies to keep kids safe in the home, around water, on the road and at play.
Since Kidsafe’s establishment in 1979, the number of children killed by unintentional injury in Australia has more than halved.
To continue to have an impact, Kidsafe Victoria relies on the kind generosity of the public to provide much needed support for our services. We need your help to continue our efforts to save the lives of Victorian children.
– Provide community education and injury prevention awareness campaigns and programs in the areas of road, home water and play safety.
– Deliver face to face, practical, evidence based injury prevention presentations to community groups including new parents groups.
– Develop and distribute evidence based resources e.g. antenatal education resources, ages and stages fact sheets, home safety checklists, child restraint safety height chart plus many more.
– Support parents to create legacy programs that contribute to community change of behaviour and action, ultimately potentially saving future lives.
