Since last year, we have been working with The Road Safety Foundation (RSF) to understand more about how neurodivergent children and young people (including autism, ADHD, dyspraxia, dyslexia) experience roads.
Funded by The Road Safety Trust, the project aims to build a stronger evidence base to understand the specific challenges faced by neurodivergent children and identify practical measures that can make journeys safer, calmer and more inclusive.
Over recent months, project progress includes:
- Understanding how other countries are tackling neurodivergence and road safety
- Looking at research that has taken place so far
- Interviews and child-led observations with neurodivergent children about their personal experiences
- Developing a questionnaire to find out about how neurodivergent children and their parents/carers feel about roads
We need your help! When the questionnaire is ready, we would love it if you and/or your child were able to participate!
Additionally, if you know of any school or group contacts who may be able to distribute this important piece of work, that would also be really appreciated.
We’ll be in touch soon!
This is such important work! When a questionnaire is ready I would be happy to fill it with my child.
Thank you so much, we will contact you.
