The Road Safety Trust
The Road Safety Trust is an independent grant giving trust , supporting projects and research that aim to make UK roads safer for all road users . Its charitable objective is to support road safety research or practical interventions intended to reduce the numbers of people killed or injured on the roads .
It is especially keen to support measures that combine approaches to casualty reduction . Projects are expected to give an indication of the benefits to road safety that may be expected from the research or from any practical intervention that may be supported and how these benefits have been calculated .
The charity is governed by eleven trustees and includes the national NPCC lead for roads policing . The trustees come from a range of backgrounds including the private sector , civil service , higher education , politics and crime reduction . The members of the Trust are the 43 police forces of England , Wales and Northern Ireland .
The Road Safety Trust launches regular funding schemes including small and large grant programmes . Further information about the Road Safety Trust and projects funded to date can be found at
