A message from The Safety Centre Charity: 

The Safety Centre Charity was thrilled to educate over 14,000 children, young people and adults with life-saving learning since reopening after the pandemic. The charity based in Kiln Farm, Milton Keynes is the region’s leading safety education charity. The Safety Centre education team are ready and excited to welcome students and visitors to their education centre Hazard Alley for the next academic year.

Last year the Safety Centre launched their new choices and consequences education scenario. This new scenario has children focus on their choices and the consequences of these choices in relation to littering, graffiti and knife crime, funded by Safer MK and MK Development Partnership. This alongside the brand new Choices and Consequences: Early Knife Crime Intervention classroom session, available for primary school children in year five and six, has been a really well received addition to The Safety Centre's already life-saving curriculum. Find out more about on the Safety Centre’s website.

Last academic year the Safety Centre Charity taught over 14,000 children, young people and adults life-saving education. This has either been through tours at their education centre, sessions in schools as part of their outreach programme or first aid and fire marshal training, which is available for both schools and companies to book.

Amy Lawrence, Bookings and Marketing Assistant at the Safety Centre Charity said ‘We believe that education empowers people to make safer choices and could not be happier with the way this first year back has gone. We cannot wait to see what the next year will bring.’
