Dear friends,
Today is a massive day for me and for Children for Health. After a long journey—finding funding, building partnerships, and working with experts—we are publishing our new *Accidents and Injuries Poster*! This poster marks a HUGE milestone for me: we’ve now completed *100 key health messages* across our 10 topics. We began this in 2013! As with all our posters, this one was created hand-in-hand with experts, teachers, and children around the world. We start with 20 messages, refine them with the help of schools and
communities, and settle on the 10 most important. Then the artwork is developed, tested, and reviewed before publication.
Please take a look, share it with your networks, and use it wherever it can help protect children’s health: Accidents & Injuries Poster

We would also love to hear from you and any comments you have on ways you can use it or share it - let us know - it is so encouraging.
With best wishes
Clare Hanbury
