FREE CAR SEAT CHECKS
š¶ Parents, grandparents, whÄnau - are the children in your car safe?
š¶ Is your childās car seat installed correctly?
Most children are restrained when in a vehicle but experts report that around 80% of the restraints used are not installed correctly or are not appropriate for the child.
We've partnered with Upper Hutt Plunket and local restraint technicians to run car seat clinics at Upper Hutt Plunket in Logan St.
Friday 7 October 10.00am - 2.00pm
Friday 18 November 10.00am - 2.00pm
Friday 2 December 10.00am - 2.00pm
Most children are restrained when in a vehicle BUT around 80% of child restraints are found to be incorrectly installed or not appropriate for the child.
A child restraint installed incorrectly = an unsafe child.
A qualified restraint technician will do a FREE safety check.
