Dear Colleagues,

‘Brake’ National Road Safety Week – ‘Let’s Talk About Speed’ Campaign 19-25 November 2023:

Introduction:
The ‘Brake’ National Road Safety Week campaign takes place this week 19-25 November and is again being supported by Royal Mail Group (RMG) and the CWU jointly. The RMG materials arrived only yesterday so our apologies for the late notice. However, the campaign messages are for the year not just the week.

Road Safety Week is the UK’s biggest annual road safety campaign event. Every year, thousands of companies, fleet operators, schools, organisations, trade unions and communities get involved to shout out for our right to make safe and healthy journeys on the UK’s roads every day. ‘BRAKE’ announced that the theme of Road Safety Week 2023 is ‘Let’s Talk About Speed’ – Five people die on UK roads every single day, so why do we still think it’s OK to speed? Please support and take part in Road Safety Week 2023 and join the national conversation.

‘Brake’ is a road safety charity working with communities and organisations across the UK to stop the tragedy of road deaths and injuries, make streets and communities safer for everyone, and support people bereaved and seriously injured on roads. ‘Brake’ has been working since 1995 to make a difference across the UK.
