Lifesaver Project

Lifesaver Logo NEW

The Lifesaver Project is a Garda led initiative which was launched in Limerick back in November, 2008 in an effort to reduce the number and severity of road traffic collisions and to improve road safety awareness.  It is a collaborative effort between Limerick County Council, Limerick City Council, An Garda Siochana, Limerick County and City Fire Services, Ambulance Services and the Health Service Executive.

 

This road safety event, is divided into two parts.  The first of which took place in the car park of the South Court Hotel and students  witnessed  firsthand what the scene of a fatal road traffic collision is like.  The emergency services were deployed as if it were a real road traffic collision

.

The second part of the show took place in the Hotel Conference Centre in the form of a PowerPoint presentation with input from local emergency service personnel.  It included road safety ads from around the world, a personal account from one road collision survivor and input from families who have lost loved ones as a result of road traffic collisions.

We are currently in the final stages of the editing of the promotional video for this project.
