17.01.2022 ‘We are one of the lucky ones’. Warning, there are images in this video that some people may find confronting.

Two years of surgeries later, Kirra recounts their story as a warning to all.... For information and advice on what you can do to reduce the risk in your home, the signs and symptoms of a button battery ingestion and what to do if you suspect a child has ingested a button battery, please visit https://kidsafe.com.au/button-batteries/

17.01.2022 Once a child is too tall for their rear facing child restraint (as indicated by the shoulder height markers), they should use a forward facing child restraint with an inbuilt harness as long as they still fit in it. #ChildRestraintGuidelines #Top10stepsforsafertravel NeuRA - Neuroscience Research Australia

05.01.2022 Don’t be in a hurry to move them into the next stage of child car restraint. No two children are the same - there is no magic number. Keep each child in their current seat until they outgrow it. #ChildRestraintGuidelines #Top10stepsforsafertravel NeuRA - Neuroscience Research Australia
