DUDLEY libraries are gearing up for a holiday week of road safety events for youngsters and adults.

On Tuesday May 27, from 11am to 1pm, Wordsley Library will be hosting demonstrations by fire service crews on how to fit a child car safety seat.

Regular craft and story sessions for children aged from five to 11 at libraries around the region will take on a road safety theme throughout the week.

Cllr Michael Evans, Dudley cabinet member for libraries, said: "These activities are a great way to share key messages with children about how to stay safe when out and about."

All events are free, for tickets contact local libraries and for more information call Judith Worton on 01384 818360.
