How do we teach children about carbon monoxide?

Quick links

We know the importance of everyone knowing the signs of a carbon monoxide leak and what to do if you suspect a carbon monoxide leak in the home. This doesn’t just apply to adults; we’re also on a mission to educate our nation’s children and help them understand the risks posed by carbon monoxide (CO).

Our school sessions

We offer classroom-based and virtually led sessions for children in KS1 and KS2 to teach them all about CO and how they can keep their families safe at home.

The CO crew, Mimi and Loz, help to educate children in years 5 and 6.

Additionally, our CO Assembly is a 15-minute educational video for children in years 1 to 6 and can be delivered alongside a classroom session with Safety Seymour or CO Crew.
