Story
As many of you are aware our 17 month old son was involved in a tragic accident in a car park in August 2017. Since this has happened we have been focusing on keeping our son's memory alive by doing something positive and feel promoting road safety for young children is the best way to turn his story into helping others.
In the USA they have a product called Parking Pal which encourages young children to stay next to the car while the parents are packing or unloading. By placing a simple removable child friendly magnet on the rear of the car the children are encouraged to place their hand onto this so they dont wander off or are in the path of cars moving around car parks.
To go along side this is a children's book designed by a mother in America on the dangers of cars and small children. It is a brilliant picture book which is easy to read and follow. This is currently only available in the USA and is wrote for its american audience. I would like to bring this over to England which would mean changing a few things including the wording as they describe car parks as parking lots ect.
I am raising money to cover the costs of redesigning and printing this book.
Thank you for reading and your donation is greatly appreciated.
Cheryl ( Jackson's mum )

From another grieving mother, Jackson's little face never fails to make me smile. I'm so sorry he died. This is a brilliant idea. I'll be ordering some, my toddlers are a nightmare to keep up with!
