Lanarkshire MP supports brain injury charity's winter road safety campaign

East Kilbride, Strathaven and Lesmahagow MP, Dr Lisa Cameron is supporting a campaign highlighting the importance of being seen at night in order to increase road safety.

The Child Brain Injury Trust (CBIT) has identified road traffic collisions as the leading cause of acquired brain injury (ABI) in the children they support across the UK in the last 12 months, making up 20 per cent of all referrals throughout the country.

Eighteen and a half per cent of children in Scotland referred to the charity in the last year are receiving support for an acquired brain injury that has occurred as a result of a road traffic collision.
