Child car seat clinic

A free safety clinic aimed at tackling the high rate of incorrectly fitted child car seats will take place in Orkney later this month.

Just over half of seats checked in Orkney during the Good Egg Safety clinic last year, were incorrectly fitted.

The free clinic will run again this year between 11am and 4pm on Tuesday,  August 26, in the Tesco car park, Kirkwall.

A trained expert will be available to check the car seat is in good order, compatible with the vehicle it is fitted in, and, where possible, that buckles and straps are correctly adjusted for the height, size and weight of the child it is carrying.
