We are delighted to announce that Brake’s Kids Walk is back! We’re inviting all school-aged children to join the thousands taking part in a walk on 16 June 2021 to shout out for safe and healthy journeys.
Brake’s Kids Walk is a short, supervised walk, involving thousands of children aged 4-11 walking at the same time to promote important road safety messages within their community. Children walk in pairs in crocodile formation, while holding hands, to emphasise the importance of being able to walk without fear or threat from traffic.
Schools and families are invited to sign up to Brake’s Kids Walk and to receive a free action pack. This includes guidance about how to take part as well as teaching resources, lessons and activities to teach children vital road safety skills.
Brake’s Kids Walk is a great way to inspire and engage children about the dangers they face and raise awareness among parents, carers and the wider community about the need to protect children on our roads.
Sign up for a FREE action pack including:
- Lesson plans
- Assemblies
- Activities
- Fundraising ideas
- Shaun the Sheep Kids Walk posters
“Brake’s Kids Walk is a great way for our school to raise awareness among the community of how we can create a safe environment to enable children to walk, while also fundraising to support a worthwhile cause.” Iris Smith, HLTA, Penshurst Primary School
Brake’s Kids Walk 2021 is sponsored by eSure.
