RoSPA in Europe : Child Safety
European Child Safety Alliance
RoSPA shares the UK seat on the working group of the Alliance with the Child Accident Prevention Trust.
The European Child Safety Alliance is an initiative of the European Association for Injury Prevention and Safety Promotion (EuroSafe) to advance child injury prevention throughout Europe.
The mission of the Alliance is to enhance the quality of children's lives through the power of reason, solidarity and compassion. The Alliance has three goals.
- Goal 1:
To influence key decision-makers and leaders at the European level to enhance healthy public policies and funding for child injury prevention initiatives - Goal 2:
To stimulate European level injury prevention awareness promotions to increase the profile of child injury prevention - Goal 3:
To organise a European Child Injury Prevention Network to share resources, best practice and develop partnerships in child injury prevention throughout Europe.
Over the past two years the alliance has campaigned to prevent child drownings all over Europe. It is now turning its attention to home safety issues.
Some members, including RoSPA are helping to produce national child safety action plans.

Child Safety Action Plans
The Child Safety Action Plan (CSAP) project is being run by the European Child Safety Alliance. The aim of this large-scale project is to use standardised tools and processes to develop action plans to enhance child safety in 18 countries in the European Union.
RoSPA staff in Scotland and Northern Ireland are working with a variety of partners in those countries to produce plans over the next 18 months.
