    Leeds City Council - Highways and Transportation received £5000 from the Fund for their Road Safety Oscars project while The Polish Saturday School in Huddersfield received £2538.88 for a special event to increase awareness of road safety around their building- used by a large number of people from the community and sits near a busy main road.

    The Leeds initiative sees secondary schools across the city develop road safety and sustainable travel films.
