“Heads Up” - a child Helmet wearing program by VIVO Energy Uganda to be re-launched.

Our partners VIVO Energy Uganda, are going to re-launch “Heads Up” - a child Helmet wearing program, promoting the wearing of Helmets for school going children who travel using Boda bodas.
.
Previously, this idea was started in 2019 where we trained over 6 schools and had planned to continue the training sessions even in 2020 which didn`t happen because of COVID 19 lockdown. As a result, schools closed. We had to put this campaign on hold till now.
.
VIVO Energy is going to re-launch it on Tuesday, 11th July 2023 at Shimon Primary school. Thereafter, we will go to 6 other schools to teach children on the importance of wearing helmets and the dangers of not wearing them.
.
The Minister of State for Primary Education, Hon. Dr Joyce Kaducu Moriku will be the guest of honor. There will be representatives/key stakeholders from Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA), Ministry of Works, Roads and Transport, Ministry of Education and Traffic Police.
.
This is a VIVO Energy project in partnership with Consult Afrika Usalama, the coordinator and implementer on their behalf.
