FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) January 19, 2012 -- ‘Michael, who was 11, left the room. Kieran, ten, sat in shock, James, nine, broke down, while Emma, seven, and Chantelle, five fidgeted. I took them to the park, then we packed and I brought them home.’
Julie, mother of Adam, 20, Peter, 19, and 14-year-old Christian moved the table from her dining room to turn it into an extra bedroom for the girls.
She says: ‘I put a tent up in the garden, and the children took turns to camp outside. We turned it into a game. The children were terribly traumatised by losing both their parents so quickly.

‘Michael kept being sick and Chantelle was hysterical at the thought of leaving me to go to school. But now, despite our lack of space and money, we have become one happy family.’
The table in the kitchen is so small that Julie had to cook Christmas dinner in two sittings. Her eldest son has left for university and his bedroom is used by the younger boys.
Julie works 40 hours a week as an administrator and runs the home on her £18,000-a-year salary.
‘Caroline’s photographs are all around, and the children aren’t quiet anymore. The house is filled with screams and shouts and laughter,’ she says.

‘They say “Julie, you make us so happy,” but the truth is that they’re the ones who make me happy. I’m not extraordinary. I’m just a mum — with lots of love to give.’Nurse who rode to the rescueAs a paediatric nurse, Angela Lee knows tragedies will always happen on the roads.
But when she held a dying 14-year-old boy in her arms — knowing his death might have been avoided if he’d worn a cycling helmet — she vowed to make a difference.
Angela, 54, from Reading, Berks, says: ‘Phillip had been brought into the children’s trauma unit with appalling head injuries after falling from his bike. For four months, I watched his family hold his hands, talk to him and read to him. ‘But he never responded and, cruelly, when they weren’t there one day, he suddenly deteriorated.

‘I cradled him in my arms and thought about the life he should have had. I felt such a sense of loss and helplessness — and suddenly I realised I had to do something.
So many sleepless nights: When Kathy Coe (left) launched her Pathway Project in 1991, it consisted of a telephone helpline in her bedroom. Angela Lee, a full-time paediatric nurse, founded the Bicycle Helmet Initiative Trust in 1998‘Phillip’s older brother had told me that despite what had happened, he still wouldn’t wear a helmet because it wasn’t cool.
‘I realised that if I could change the perception of helmets, and persuade teenagers to wear them — and educate schools about the dangers of head injuries — we might prevent more children from dying.

‘I launched the Bicycle Helmet Initiative and persuaded a local manufacturer to let me have helmets at cost price. I toured local schools, giving talks and produced information packs.
‘The campaign snowballed, and I would work my nursing shifts, then walk to a tiny room the hospital let me use so I could contact schools, local councils and helmet manufacturers.’ Since its launch in 1992, the Bicycle Helmet Initiative has distributed nearly 12,000 helmets to children throughout Britain, targeting those in deprived areas.
Up to 22,000 schools across the country have been given 44,000 information packs.

Angela has advised the Department of Transport, and continues to work as a nurse. ‘I can never stop, because I know bicycle helmets make a huge difference to survival rates,’ she says.
‘Research shows children stand 60 to 80 per cent more chance of surviving an impact if they’re wearing a helmet.
‘Recently, I met a small boy aged six who had fallen from his bike while wearing one of our helmets. The helmet cracked, but his skull was fine — and his smiling face was all I needed to keep me going in my crusade.’
