Help to keep kids safe this winter

A leading housebuilder is helping keep children across West Lothian safe on their walk, cycle and scoot to and from school.

After a successful first year in the West of Scotland, Miller Homes has expanded its Home Safe campaign for a second year, this time across central Scotland, including Livingston and East Calder.

Looking to keep children safe across the Central Belt safe this autumn, Miller Homes will be providing high-vis vests for parents and guardians to pick up from its Fairnielea development in Livingston, The Grange in Murieston and Calderwood development in East Calder.

In addition to wearing high-vis vests when travelling to school, Miller Homes also encourages children and their guardians to familiarise themselves with educational resources on the Road Safety Scotland website, including activities for children around the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents’ Green Cross Code.

Lynsey Brown, regional sales director for Miller Homes East, said: “We’re delighted to be launching Home Safe in the East of Scotland and hope it will go some way to helping children travel to and from school as safely as possible.

“With the darker nights only a few weeks away our high vis vests will make sure the children in and around our West Lothian developments stand-out on their walk or cycle to school, especially near busy roads.

“We are looking forward to seeing kids sporting their vests and enjoying a safe walk to and from school, no matter the weather.”

Suitable for all primary school children, the high-vis vests will be available on a first come first served basis and can be collected from the marketing suite at Fairnielea, The Grange and Calderwood from Thursday to Monday, 10.30am to 5.30pm.
