Bryant Homes is helping local children learn about health and safety by providing Stay Safe' booklets.

They are being given to members of the Swindon Town Football in the Community initiative as part of its Safe As Houses campaign to teach children taking part in football courses about staying safe.

The firm, whose developments in the area include Newlands and Steeple Chase at Priory Vale, is the main sponsor of the community programme at Swindon Town.

With more than 600 children attending the 24 after-school clubs in and around Swindon, both the club and Bryant are keen to raise awareness of health and safety issues and ensure that kids are aware of safety hazards.

Jon Holloway, football in the community manager, said: "We get a huge number of young people at our after school clubs, so we teamed up with Bryant Homes to make sure the youngsters have good, practical advice of how best to look after themselves."
