Road Safety Week runs from 16-22 November 2025 – a campaign aimed at raising awareness and reducing injuries and deaths on our roads.
The annual event, co-ordinated by Brake – the road safety charity – aims to raise awareness of road safety issues and reduce the number of serious injuries and deaths on our roads.
This year’s theme is “Vehicle Safety” – making sure that every time we get in a vehicle we are as safe as possible, whoever we are and however we travel.
Clarke Willmott will again be supporting this year’s campaign, and with good reason. Road Traffic Accidents account for the majority of the claims for serious injuries that we handle for our clients. Every such case is a personal tragedy: our clients suffer life changing injuries including brain injury, spinal cord injury, amputations and multiple orthopaedic injuries, and we also have the sad task of representing the families and loved ones of people who have died. It is usually the case that these terrible injuries were avoidable if other road users had driven or behaved sensibly and carefully.
We work hard at Clarke Willmott to support our clients through their recovery, assisting them to access treatment and rehabilitation, trying to alleviate financial pressures and working hard with medical and therapeutic professionals to help our clients get back to the position they would have been in had they not been involved in an accident. However successful that process is though, the message we always hear from our clients is that they would not want others to have to go through what they have been through.
One of our Road Traffic Claims experts, Lee Hart said:
“This Road Safety Week focuses on vehicle safety – ensuring cars are roadworthy, keeping vital safety features switched on, and helping the next generation understand how safe vehicles can save lives. At Clarke Willmott we see first‑hand the devastation road crashes cause, so, once again, we are running a competition for children connected to our staff to design a road safety mascot or poster, encouraging them to think about safety from an early age.”
