Improving road safety for cyclists - project overview
Cyclists can make informed choices about which helmet to buy thanks to the extended safety tests carried out by Folksam Insurance Group in Sweden and co-funded by The Road Safety Trust to include helmets that are available for purchase in the UK.
We are working with partners towards testing and rating harmonisation for cycle helmets to improve helmet safety for those who choose to purchase one.
Our CEO, Sally Lines, outlines this work in a video presentation that was included in ‘more cycling’, safer cyclists’ - an online event organised by Road Safety GB in June 2021. You can watch this presentation by clicking on the video link below.
