Display Loan Program

Enhance your community-based safety campaign with help from Safe Start’s free display loan program! Our bright, colourful panels are designed to attract families with key messages and photographs addressing leading injuries among young children.

Shipping of the display is free in BC. A deposit of $100 is required to encourage responsible use. Your deposit can be made by cheque, VISA or MasterCard. Cheques are either returned or voided/destroyed when displays are returned in good condition.

Display venues can include indoor events, shopping malls, conferences, baby clinics and health fairs.

The program will work for you if:

Your event is indoors or protected from rain/wind
Your target audience is parents or caregivers of children up to five years of age

The program is unlikely to work for you if:

Your event is outdoors or exposed directly to sun/wind/rain
Your target audience is school-aged (elementary) children

Topics

In July 2009, we updated a number of the panels and created 3 new ones.

Product Safety (toys, furniture tip-overs, bunk beds) Updated!
Water Safety New!
Choking Hazards
Poisoning
Windows and Blinds Updated!
Safe Infant Sleeping New!
Around the House (stairs, electrical outlets, sharp corners) Updated!
Trampolines and Playgrounds New!
Asthma Triggers
Car Seat Safety Updated!
Earthquake Preparedness
Hot Water Scald Prevention Updated!

Optional, angled panels can be attached to the folding displays. These enable you to display brochures and other print materials without the need for a table.

Support materials

Safe Start will include free educational materials covering the topics you choose with your display shipment.
