FREE advice for parents and carers of babies and toddlers will be available at Bury's Tesco store next Wednesday and Thursday (June 20-21).
A safety and information stand will be set up at the Woodfield Retail Park-based supermarket between 10am-3pm to co-incide with Child Safety Week.
The information stand has been organised by Joanne Smith, health promotion specialist for Bury Health Care NHS Trust.
Police, fire, road safety and helath visitors will be on hand to answer questions and provide free advice and guidance on a variety of child safety topics.
The message during the annual campaign, organised by national charity Child Accident Prevention Trust, is "Accidents Just Happen? They Don't Have To."
Leaflets, quiz sheets, stickers and other literature will be available to parents and carers visiting the information stand.
Other Child Safety Week events will be taking place in the Bury area, including discussion groups with parents at various health centres.
Research shows that accidents fall into a pattern according to children's age and stage of development. Knowing the risks for each age and stage makes it easier to prevent accidents, says the charity.
