Road Safety Week 2024, After the Crash – Every road victim counts

17 November 2024

Taking place from 17 to 23 November, the theme for  Road Safety Week 2024   will be After the Crash – Every road victim counts.

BRAKE charity has chosen to put road victims at the heart of this year’s Road Safety Week campaign, to raise awareness of the devastating toll of road crashes and celebrate the work of the incredible number of people who come together every day to support families after a road death or serious injury.

Every year, more than 1,700 people die on UK roads. Another 30,000 receive serious, life-changing injuries. The numbers are shocking, and there has been no significant reduction for more than a decade.

For Road Safety Week 2024, Brake will be counting the real cost of road crashes, revealing the stories behind the numbers and calling for the very highest standard of care for every road victim.
