Kidsafe SA will visit the Fleurieu and Kangaroo Island this summer to provide free child car restraint fitting and checks to local families. 

Transport accidents are the number one cause of injury-related deaths in children aged up to 14 years. 

Child car restraints reduce the risk of injury in a crash, however, the best crash protection is provided when the restraint suits the age and size of the wearer, and when the restraint is installed and used correctly. 

Kidsafe data collection has consistently found that 70-80 per cent of children are not correctly restrained while traveling in the car. 

Its fitting service specialises in fitting a range of child car seats, baby carriers / capsules and booster seats for the safe transportation of children. 

The expert team can also provide advice on the best child car restraint for individual children.

Kidsafe SA are will be in Carpark 7 at Colonnades Shopping Centre, Noarlunga on Tuesday 17 January.

Book a spot by visiting the Kidsafe SA website.

The kangaroo Island sessions have not yet been scheduled, but will also be available to book on the website.

All appointments are funded and supported by Cops for Kids.
