Child car seat safety checks in Llanelli
The road safety team at Carmarthenshire County Council’s recently partnered with Smyths Toys in Llanelli to host a FREE Child Car Seat Safety Check Clinic.
The event in Llanelli found that 12 of the 21 seats checked needed adjustment, with 7 of these requiring a major adjustment.
Children must use a child car seat until they are 12 years old or 135cm tall, whichever comes first. It is essential to ensure that a child car seat is suitable for the vehicle, appropriate for the child using it and is fitted securely. The free service offered in Carmarthenshire aims to provide peace of mind to parents, guardians and those responsible for taking children in their vehicles.

- Tuesday 3rd September 2024, Halfords, Parc Pensarn, Carmarthen from 1pm until 5pm
- Friday 8th November 2024, Smyths Toys, Parc Pemberton, Llanelli from 1pm until 5pm.
