Housebuilder David Wilson Homes is providing hi-vis equipment to up to 2,000 pupils nationwide through its Bright Journeys campaign.
David Wilson Homes has launched the Bright Journeys campaign to help pupils stay visible and confident during their journeys to and from school. The scheme is providing hi-vis equipment to up to 2,000 pupils nationwide, with North Yorkshire pupils among those receiving items such as vests, reflective bag tags and drawstring kit bags. The equipment is designed to help children stay visible during darker autumn and winter mornings and evenings.
Paul Hogan, sales director at David Wilson Homes Yorkshire East, said the initiative aims to help children stay safe while encouraging active travel and raising road safety awareness. He added that the equipment should provide pupils and parents with extra confidence during the school run, particularly during darker months.
Schools are being invited to take part in a road safety poster competition as part of the campaign, with winning designs potentially displayed at nearby David Wilson Homes developments. The scheme supports national awareness events including Walk to School Month in October and Road Safety Week, running from 15 to 21 November.
