Every year, more than 1,700 people die on UK roads. Another 30,000 receive serious, life-changing injuries. Behind every number is a family whose lives have been changed forever in an instant. A family that needs our help.
We are working to stop crashes on our roads, reduce harm when a crash happens, and help every road victim get the support they need, for as long as they need it.
I have been supported since day one of my loss and am so very grateful for the support I have been given. I was listened to and heard. Nothing I said was considered a silly question or request. For that I will always remember and respect the work that Brake does.
