SAFETYSHOP.COM has recently launched a competition to find a great new school safety sign from the very people who will see it, the school children of the UK!

The prize list for the winning design is very impressive including:

• £150 worth of Safetyshop vouchers

• Tour around Safetyshop’s 34,000 square foot manufacturing facility

• Plus a mystery prize

The competition is to find safety signs that are aimed at school children (7 years to 16 years old) to raise awareness of the importance of health and safety practices. “At SafetyShop, we believe anyone who gets involved in health and safety practice is safer than those who don’t.”

“That is why we have launched a competition specifically for schools to design a safety sign which they can use on their premises”. Entries are now being taken either in hand drawn or computer generated form and requires the pupil’s name and age along with their teacher’s name and school address and telephone or email address. (Full terms and details are included below)
