Here at the Safety Centre we show children and adults how they can stay safe, understand risks and avoid accidents through powerful experiential learning.
We also provide health and safety training for workplaces.
We were established in 1992 and was officially opened by HRH The Duchess of Gloucester in 1994.
It is self-financing, income coming from services offered, grants, donations and sponsorship.
We show children and adults how they can stay safe, understand risks and avoid accidents through powerful experiential learning. We do this by proving tours through our interactive village called Hazard Alley.
Hazard Alley is the world’s first interactive indoor safety education village.
Originally conceived by Bucks Fire & Rescue Service & Thames Valley Police, it aimed to introduce children to risks, dangers and hazards in a totally safe environment.
By creating everyday scenarios that children can walk into, we developed a learning environment where children can explore, investigate, discover and imagine in complete safety.
It works so well that children don’t even realise how much they are learning and their visit is memorable into adulthood.
Since it opened it has hosted half a million children as well as inspiring other centres across the UK.
