Thousands of children across the UK set off from their school gates in June 2015, celebrating the wonders of walking by taking part in Brake’s Giant Walk.

This annual event is a fantastic way for children to put their best feet forwards for road safety: to say “yes!” to the health and planet-saving benefits of walking, and “no!” to fast driving that threatens children’s safety. The UK has a poor record for protecting children on foot and bike compared to many European neighbours. Half our children are driven to school, increasing pollution, danger and damaging health.
