A Hampshire primary school has given pupils high-visibility jackets to support a walk-to-school initiative.

The Cambridge Primary School, in Aldershot, received a donation from Taylor Wimpey West London for Road Safety Week in November.

The 50 jackets will help pupils stay safe during their walk to and from school in the winter months.

Headteacher Miss Tancock said: "Road Safety Week is a vital initiative so we're really grateful to Taylor Wimpey for their kind donation.

"Walking is a great way for our pupils to start the day with us, and the donation enables them to arrive and leave the school premises in a much safer way, which is the most important thing of all."

Since 1995, the charity has been working to make streets safe for all.

Its campaign, which runs from November 17 to 23, sees thousands of schools, organisations, and communities share road safety messages.

Gemma Bibby, sales and marketing director at Taylor Wimpey West London, said: "We're proud to have been able to make this donation to The Cambridge Primary School this November, and are always keen to support the Road Safety Week initiative."
