    Halloween Safety – Celebrate The Spooky Season Safely

    There is no better way to end the month of October than by celebrating Halloween.

    Inspired by the upcoming spooky spectacle, we’re talking about Halloween Safety in what we are calling #BeSeenOnHalloween!

    Whether you are hoping to receive tricks or treats, we want to give you some great tips for making sure you can celebrate Halloween safely.

    Carving Pumpkins

    October marks the season for carving pumpkins into spooky faces or works of art. It’s a truly messy activity full of fun that can be enjoyed by everyone. We certainly enjoy it here at The Safety Centre. However, it is important to make sure that we stay safe whilst we are doing this.

    Make sure you when you are carving you:

    • Are in an area that is well lit. You need to be able to see everything clearly, especially if you are planning to use a knife to do all of the carving.
    • Make sure all of your tools, pumpkin and hands are kept dry. Carving pumpkins is a messy business and can make surfaces slippery, increasing the risk of you cutting or injuring yourself.
    • Keep sharp objects out of reach and out of sight of children. If you are allowing them the carve the pumpkin, make sure you supervise them at all times.
    • Consider using a pumpkin carving kit. These kits are designed to be used to carve pumpkins and are much easier to use than sharp knives.

    Treat Candles With Care

    Candles are popular when celebrating Halloween, often being used in pumpkins to give them a spooky glow.

    However, it is important to remember that candles can be dangerous, especially when left unattended. The flickering flame can get into all kinds of mischief, leading to the possibility of fires starting, or serious burns like the ones experienced by Claudia Winkleman’s daughter.

    If you are planning on using candles, please make sure you:

    • Put the flame out before leaving the room.
    • Never leave them within reach of small children or animals. A small bump is all it takes to lead to a nasty accident occurring, especially since many costumes are considered toys and aren’t flame retardant.
    • Keep candles away from curtains or decorations. Make sure you do the same for any decorations you have outside as a gust of wind can make a small flame much bigger.
    • Consider using LED candles as a great alternative that can be left unattended. However, please still make sure that these are out of reach and sight of children and animals.

    Going Out Trick Or Treating

    One of the best parts about Halloween is the large amount of sweets you get from trick or treating!

    However, let’s not forget that the majority of trick or treating is done when it is dark. A dark night may be a great time for Halloween, but not for being seen. At The Safety Centre, we always say that it is not easy to see everyone when it gets darker, especially if they are wearing dark clothes. It is important to remember that drivers will still be using the roads and may not be able to see you, which can be dangerous. #BeSeenOnHalloween!

    To avoid any accidents, make sure you either wear or have something bright on you to make it easier for them to spot you, such as a reflective coat, armband or flashing lights.

    If you are planning to let your children go out with their friends without you, just remember to tell them to:

    • Stick to routes that are familiar to them.
    • Tell you:

    Where they are going

    Who they are going with

    What time they will be back

    If these change at any point during the night, make sure you ask them to update you as soon as they can.

    Funded Early Intervention Knife Crime Sessions To Be Delivered To School Children In Buckinghamshire

    We are delighted to announce that The Safety Centre has received funding to deliver Early Intervention Knife Crime outreach education sessions to Year 5 and 6 children in schools across Buckinghamshire!

    The funding will help our brilliant education team to reach out to schools across Buckinghamshire and provide children with essential safety education around the complex topic of knife crime.

    Early Intervention Knife Crime Awareness

    Tragically, recent news has highlighted the need for children to receive specialist education around the challenging topic of knife crime. The choice to carry a knife has life changing consequences that need to be highlighted, explored and explained in an age appropriate, sensitive way. Out highly qualified education team creates safe spaces for open conversations about a topic that can be very difficult to talk about.

    Our session, which has been delivered across schools has received high praise for the way it addresses such a sensitive subject. Children are empowered by the session, giving them the confidence to make safe, positive decisions. They also feel reassured, knowing they have a support network they can reach out to if they need help.

    Our mission at The Safety Centre Charity is for all children, young people and adults to have access to interactive, immersive and memorable safety education and training, enabling safe and flourishing communities. We are delighted that we are able to extend our reach further into Buckinghamshire through the help of this funding.

    Sarah Surridge, Marketing Manager at the Safety Centre said

    ‘We’re thrilled to have received funding from The Heart of Bucks Community Foundation, enabling our education team to deliver life-saving early intervention knife crime education across Buckinghamshire. These sessions help young people make safe choices for themselves, their families and the communities they are living and growing up in. Having safe spaces to talk about these life changing decisions is essential as we support our communities to thrive through essential life-saving education.’

    Funding Received From Heart Of Bucks

    We are very grateful for the incredible support given by the Heart of Bucks Community Foundation.

    The Heart of Bucks Community Foundation ensures their funds support individuals and organisations who will positively impact those in need across its county. Since it began in 2000, it has awarded over £10 million pounds to local causes.

    Henry Allmand, CEO of the Heart Of Bucks Community Foundation said

    ‘We are delighted to fund the Safety Centre and the important work they are doing. The Knife Crime Early Intervention Sessions will protect our communities now and in the future. Together with Buckinghamshire Council, we are committed to providing vital funding towards community safety projects such as this, transforming Buckinghamshire for the better.’

    Cycle To School Safely This Week By Checking Out Our Top Tips!

    Cycle to School week is the perfect time to get out your bike and try a new way of getting to school or work. We know that travelling by bike is a great way to be healthy and reduce the number of cars on our roads, helping to reduce the impact we have on global warming.

    However, it can be very daunting for us to make the step to do this, especially if we are close to busy roads. In Milton Keynes, we are fortunate enough to have redways that we can use when we are cycling, but it is important to recognise that not every place has them and they might not be near where we need to travel.

    With this in mind you may feel that it is easier to use the car instead, but don’t let this stop you from making a healthier choice. Our top tips below are here to help empower you with the knowledge to feel confident to cycle safely.

    Safety Centre’s Top Tips For Cycling Safely

    Do A Bike Safety Check

    How do we know our bikes are safe for us to ride? It might not seem like much, but doing these simple checks beforehand ensures that you are staying safe, even before your journey has started.

    1. How are my tyres? Check each tyre for for any punctures, gashes or debris that might be stuck in them. If this all seems ok check your tyre pressure.
    2. How are my brakes? Check your brake pads, have they worn away?
    3. How are my wheels? What happens to your wheels if you spin them? Are they ok or can you see them sticking?

    For a more in-depth cycle safety check, Cyclescheme have a useful breakdown of what to look for. The best part is it only takes 2 minutes.

    Wear The Right Cycle Clothing

    A great fitting cycle helmet and bright clothing go hand in hand with cycling.

    As we say at The Safety Centre, our head contains a very important brain, so we need to protect it. Wearing a cycle helmet does this, so it is essential that we have one. It is also important that we wear bright clothing. Staying bright means we can stay being seen and that is important when we are out and about on the roads, especially as we are approaching winter when the days start to get darker quicker.

    Plan Your Route!

    It doesn’t matter if you are walking, cycling or using a scooter to get to school, planning your route is an essential step in ensuring you choose the safest route. Take a look at the redways (if you have them) that are closest to you and any road crossings that you might be able to use.

    Get Around MK have a route planner that is really useful. As well as showing you how to get to your destination on a map, they also have a break down of directions that you can use to help identify the specific road names. They also have a map of all the redways in the area.

    Remember, it never hurts to plan more than one route just in case your usual route is blocked off.

    Know Your Hand Signals!

    It is really important to communicate with other road users when you are out and about on your bike. You may have seen many cyclists stretch out their arms to the side to indicate to other that they are turning. However, there are many other signals out there to let other vehicles know if you are slowing down or stopping.

    Road Cycling UK have a handy guide that you can use.

    Have Some Bikeability Training

    If you are still a little nervous, you can always opt for some bikeability training. This can help to build your skills, knowledge and confidence on roads when you are out and about on your bicycle. They have a variety of courses you can choose, from the level 1 basics to the more advanced cycle skills of level 3.

    Interested In Finding Out More Information?

    At The Safety Centre, we know the value of safety education and cover many topics, including cycle safety.

    Welcome To A New Academic Year, Let’s Talk About Safety Education! 

    Each new academic year brings with it an excellent opportunity to open up conversations about safety with children. Crossing roads, online safety, the dangers of open water and fires are just some of the potential risks children need to be aware of.  However, it is equally important for them to know what to do if they are in challenging situations and who they can turn to.

    Whether you have a topic relating to safety, want to cover essential parts of your PSHE curriculum, or feel your students would benefit overall, we are the place to visit.

    As seen in the summer edition of the School Travel Organiser, our amazing immersive education centre centre covers 11 vital safety topics. These topics equip your pupils with the knowledge to empower them to make safer choices as they venture out into the world around them.

    Book Your Visit

    As a Learning Outside the Classroom Quality Badge holder, we not only have quality education outside the classroom but we also help to reduce your paperwork, making it easier to take your pupils off-site. Therefore, visiting us will not only make covering essential safety and PSHE topics easier,  it will also be a fun and educational experience for all. The best part is, children get to experience this learning in a realistic and immersive environment.

    Schools can visit us for half a day or take their learning to a whole new level by choosing a whole day. These visits have an additional online safety classroom session.

    Tours are lead by our dedicated volunteer tour guides who teach children the life-saving education we are known for. Our online safety sessions are age appropriate and taught in our new classroom by a member of our education team.

    As the world’s first and region’s leading safety education charity there’s nowhere better for your next trip!

    All content is created and taught by our education team so all you have to do is book a date to visit us. You can do this by clicking here and filling out one of our booking forms.

    We teach safety education so you don’t have to.

    In School Safety Sessions Available

    Already booked your school outings for this year? Why not book one of our In-School Safety Sessions and have us come out to you.

    Taught by our incredible education team, we cover a variety of essential safety topics that your students can access in the classroom. From our very popular online safety session, designed for all age groups, we also cover age specific topics. These sessions include emergency services, early knife crime intervention, gas safety and drug and alcohol safety.

    The Safety Centre Charity Is Here For Your Life Saving Learning

    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 regions 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!

    New Early Intervention Knife Crime Education Programme & Scenario

    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 our already life-saving curriculum.

    We encourage schools to book our sessions early, so speak to our education team on 01908 263009 to book your year five and six students in school sessions for next academic year.

    Fantastic End Of Year Results!

    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 our education centre, sessions in schools as part of our 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.’

    To find out more about visiting Hazard Alley, having a school outreach session, or training your employees with us head to our website for further details and how to book.

    There was plenty of excitement to be had last week as families from refugee and newly arrived communities visited our interactive education centre, Hazard Alley.

    The families were welcomed by the friendly faces of our incredible volunteers. They, with the help of some handy translations, provided a ‘Hazard Alley’ experience suitable for all.

    The translated signs focussed on the key safety messages we cover in each scenario, such as the dangers of open water and how to cross the road safely. Families were able to experience our realistic scenarios and gain essential safety knowledge, which will help them as they continue to settle into new communities.

    At the Safety Centre, we know the value of safety education. It instils confidence and empowers people to think about making safer choices, enabling safer communities to flourish. That is what makes our work so important and why we continue to strive to reach more people.

    Jodie Connolly, Education and Development Officer at the Safety Centre Charity said

    “It is an extremely proud moment for the Safety Centre to be welcoming refugee and newly arrived families in for such vital safety education. The realistic, visual, and interactive features of Hazard Alley provide a memorable opportunity for learning like no other. It is just brilliant to see the centre being used for such a great purpose.”

    We thank the Milton Keynes Community Foundation for their support with funding this incredible project and hope to continue providing this essential service to all who need it.

    Hazard Alley are delighted to announce that our new scenario is up and running.

    Last year, the Safety Centre were awarded funding by MK Council and the Safer MK Partnership. This was to create a new learning zone that focused on the risks and consequences related to knife crime.

    After many months of hard work, the new scenario is finished and a great new addition to our Hazard Alley tour. Children really enjoy using the clikapads to make their decisions when faced with challenging scenarios.

    The content covered is age appropriate, with years 2-4 focusing on choices and consequences related to littering and graffiti, whilst years 5 and 6 focus on the choices and consequences related to knife crime.

    We are very pleased to see the positive impact this is already having on the school children that visit us. It is another fantastic scenario, providing children with the opportunity to gain essential knowledge that will empower them to make safer choices.

    The Safety Centre would like to say a big ‘Thank You!’ to the Milton Keynes Development Partnership (MKDP), for their generous grant of £9,800 towards the completion of our new scenario.

    This funding, in addition to the support we have received from other organisations, has provided us with the ability to create an engaging scenario that is full of impact.

    The new scenario will support the vital educational programme we are creating around knife crime. As a result, it will enable children to develop knowledge, skills and build their resilience. It will help them to make the right choices and enjoy their childhood safely.

    As a safety education charity, we understand the importance of educating children about the risks they face today, which is why we are so grateful to all who have been involved in the development of our new scenario. We would not have been able to achieve this without you.

    Thank You!

    Safety Centre, Hazard Alley are very excited to announce that we will be introducing a brand new learning zone into our wonderful interactive village!

    The new scenario has been partially funded by MK Council and the Safer MK partnership, and will resemble a community shopping court. It will focus on educating children about the risks and consequences related to knife crime, which has become an increasing concern in many areas in and around Milton Keynes.

    We are very proud to be at the forefront of implementing a new learning resource that will benefit children for years to come.

    In order to make space for the new scenario, we did need to make some changes in the village. Therefore, after many years of educating thousands of children about the dangers of petrol and car air pumps, the Hazard Alley BP station has taken its final bow as the 7th scenario in our amazing tour.

    We would like to say a huge ‘Thank You’ to everyone who was involved in the removal, as it was not an easy task. However, it was wonderful to discover that behind the main scenario were some of the garage’s previous designs. It provided us with a much needed trip down memory lane.

    While we are sad to see it go, we are very excited for the upcoming launch of what will take its place. It certainly has big shoes to fill!

    I am thrilled to have joined the Safety Centre charity and I look forward to building on the success of Jo Green, the previous Director.

    The work of the Safety Centre is far reaching and invaluable, which resonates with my passion for making a positive difference to the lives of others. As a mum I champion the importance of children experiencing safety education in such an interactive and immersive way.

    I’ve worked in the charity sector for over 20 years, having gained my experience at international, national and regional charities. My experience spans areas of leadership, operational management, generating revenue, developing strategic partnerships, growing services and managing staff & volunteer teams.

    In all the roles I’ve held I have had the pleasure of working with volunteers. In fact, being a volunteer myself whilst I was at University over 24 years ago is what triggered my passion for the charity sector. As a sector we couldn’t operate without the support and generosity of our volunteer network, and I’d like to acknowledge the invaluable support of the Safety Centre charity volunteers.

    A special thank you to everyone who has supported our work in ensuring we are providing the absolute best safety education in an interactive and memorable way to young people across our communities.

    I look forward to working with the wider community and ensuring we continue this vital work.

    Maya

    Does your family know its TikTok from its Twitter? Its Deliveroo from its Discord? And its Bieber from its Baby Shark?

    Why don’t you find out by taking part in the Your Digital Family Quiz?

    Hazard Alley, on behalf of Parentzone, is running a brand new quiz that explores all of the brilliant and different things that families enjoy doing online.

    When it comes to families, we know that this can mean a lot of different people: aunts, parents, carers, siblings, the list can go on. However, what will unite every family is their use of technology, so it is important to start thinking about our relationship with it. Especially since our use of technology has increased due to current restrictions that tell us to stay at home.

    All you will need to take part in this quiz is a pen, some paper and a place where your family can come together. This could be at your dining table or on the comfy sofas you have in your living room.

    Please come and join us for an hour filled with interesting questions and engaging interaction, all to test your knowledge about the digital world. There will be three rounds of questions. Some might be more challenging than others, but they may help to inspire new ideas for family conversations about tech, and what can be achieved together online and offline.

    Think your family are up to the challenge?

    Important information

    Who can take part? Your Digital Family quiz events are suitable for parents and young people in secondary school.

    What do you need to take part? Just paper, a pen and a connected device – like a smartphone, tablet or laptop. Plus, an hour to take part as a family – at a time that suits you!

    How do you take part? If you are interested in joining a Your Digital Family quiz event……

    Please contact Katherine Adams at katherine@www.safetycentre.co.uk for more details. Places are limited, so if you are interested, please get in touch as soon as you can.

    We have an exciting opportunity to join our team as a freelance educator and help us to deliver our school liaison programme.

    We are looking for educators to work with us on a freelance basis. Can you deliver engaging sessions that teach children how to stay virtually safe or physically safe when out and about?

    We teach sessions out in primary schools on themes such as online safety, knife crime, carbon monoxide and gas safety. We also teach sessions in the centre and have some evening opportunities to co-deliver parents briefing sessions too. Our main audience is children aged 6 to 12 in schools across Milton Keynes and beyond.

    In the current situation we’re also exploring virtual delivery using video conferencing platforms so you could get the chance to further develop your teaching skills.

    You can find out more about what we’re looking for, how to apply and details of the programme we deliver.

    Please use the enquiry form to get in touch if you would like to chat about the opportunity before you apply? We look forward to hearing from you!

    We are looking for an influential and inspirational Chief Executive to lead the Safety Centre, best known as Hazard Alley, from the early Autumn.

    After 25 years of safety education to over 500,000 children, there is great local awareness of, and affection for, Hazard Alley. Around 14,000 young people usually visit the centre each year, a further 2500 taught out in schools, around 650 people are trained in first aid and we generate an annual revenue in excess of £250k. We won two business awards in 2020.

    The CEO must lead and manage all aspects of the charity working with Trustees to develop long-term strategic direction and a three-year business plan to develop new and financially sustainable ways of providing safety education, building on the grant funding and business support we already enjoy. The Centre has 6 staff plus about 40 volunteers.

    If you have bags of enthusiasm and an understanding of how to develop a regional social enterprise, we would love to hear from you. You can read the chair of trustee’s welcome letter and find more details about the role and how to apply.

    Closing date: 11th September 2020 at 5pm (not 31st August 2020 as on the details)

    It’s Volunteers’ Week 2020 – an opportunity for us to pay tribute to our fantastic team of volunteers.

    Thank you to all of our volunteers for all the time, energy and enthusiasm you bring helping our young visitors learn how to keep themselves safe. Guiding children around Hazard Alley and helping them to practice making emergency 999 calls creates an engaging and memorable learning experience. Teaching children the knowledge, skills and attitudes they need is ever more critical in the current pandemic but sadly something we can’t do at Kiln Farm right now.

    We miss you terribly during lock down but the Virtual Volunteer Cuppa on a Friday morning is a high spot in our week. We’re also well impressed with your determination to keep in touch and your willingness to embrace video conferencing in order to stay in touch remotely.  You are keeping us all young and inspired to rebuild once this is all over.

    We can’t wait until we can welcome you back to the centre all in your green tops and with your big smiles, ready to put into practice all the brilliant suggestions to make visits possible again from our recent zoom call. In Volunteers’ Week and every week, let’s keep our community going, the laughs comings,  and the conversation going until we can meet again in person.

    If you are interested in joining this fabulous bunch of people, we are always looking for more volunteers. You can find out more here or email us to arrange a chat.

    While we can’t open our doors to visitors during the current pandemic, we’ve worked with Visual Realms Limited to update our virtual reality model of Hazard Alley.

    You will find links to educational videos, activities and online resources. We’ve chosen them because they support the specific safety messages that we teach in each scenario or simply because we thought they might be fun to do.

    Click here to get to the village and then explore: Live Tour

    Or start from the Discover page: https://www.safetycentre.co.uk/scenarios-activities/ and click on the purple box.

    When you click on a green circle in the tour you’ll get a brief explanation about the virtual resource and then a web link to click. One or two just tell you about the centre or what facilities we have so ignore those for now!

    You might find Western Power’s Discovery Zone or how to be King of the Road with some very cute hedgehogs, You can earn stamps in a water safety passport by completing activities or read a new version of Goldilocks written with online safety in mind.

    Do drop us an email to tell us how you got on, what you liked doing best on our virtual visit, or to suggest some other resources you think we should add? We’re at info@www.safetycentre.co.uk or you can message us on Facebook.

    Whatever you do, have fun visiting the village and trying out the activities. We hope that you will come and see it for real when we’re open again.

    We offer school visits as well as family tours and visits for groups such as cubs and brownies. You’ll find more information about the range of services we offer on the Discover pages.
