CHILDREN and parents are being reminded of the dangers of walking to and from school on dark winter days by Hertfordshire County Council's road safety unit, which is backing two national initiatives.

A Government website www.hedgehogs.gov.uk gives road safety advice to kids and the Nationwide Building Society's Cats Eyes for Kids campaign offers youngsters free reflectors.

For more information, telephone Ms Sue Ellis on 01992 556806.
