The main aim is to reduce road casualties in all road user groups and ages in England and Wales through education, training and marketing. Our secondary aim is to improve the delivery of the road safety profession, through the provision of specific training to road safety practitioners, to ensure the maximum impact in casualty reduction is achieved.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there only 4 trustees?
  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age
  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • Income has been volatile recently
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
