About Us
Kidsafe ACT is now over 40 years old! Throughout this time childhood deaths through unintentional injuries have reduced by almost 65% across Australia.
It is a frightening thought that so many of our children are still being injured when nearly every accident is preventable. Over the last decade, we have made great progress in the ACT, but there is still a need for ongoing research and injury prevention programs. At stake is the wellbeing of our most valuable asset - our children.
What we do
Kidsafe ACT provides frontline services to parents, carers and families. These services include:
- Child car seat checks, installation, sales, hires and advice;
- Home and pedestrian safety and advice;
- Research, produce and distribute safety materials; and
- Advocating to government and industry.
How your donation will help
Thank you for considering Kidsafe for your donation! As a small, local charity, we cherish every dollar and ensure that it's used effectively towards our mission of keeping children free from injury. All of our staff are experienced, dedicated and qualified professionals who - even in severe heat, cold or rain - provide a vital public service to little Canberrans. The Canberra Times referred to us as a 'rite of passage' for local parents, showing how valued our work is in the community. With your support, we'll be able to expand our work even further, providing better service to more people, more often. We are deeply appreciative of your support in keeping children free from injury and death due to preventable injuries.
A big thank you to our Supporters
