UK-based charity
The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) is a UK-based charity focused on preventing accidents and saving lives. Founded over a century ago, RoSPA has championed key safety initiatives like seatbelt laws, Cycling Proficiency, and The Tufty Club. Their vision is an "Accident-Free World," working across work, road, home, and leisure environments to drive policy change, raise safety standards, and foster safer behaviors. Tragically, accidents claim 16,000 lives annually, often affecting society's most vulnerable groups. Supported by members and His Majesty the King as Patron, RoSPA’s mission is to build a safer, accident-free society.
