Launch of Project EDWARD 2024 Annual Calendar
As promised earlier this month, we are pleased to share our initial ambition of making Project EDWARD a truly ‘Every Day’ initiative.
In summary, we have replaced the annual week of action with a strategically-planned year-round programme of activity, guided by this year’s theme – Data-driven actions for safe mobility. The programme will involve members of the EDWARD team working with key partners to facilitate events, symposiums, webinars, discussions, podcast episodes and online activity… with the specific aim of sharing examples of evidence-led good practice that supports the Safe System.
We are very grateful for the universal support we have received in announcing this step, particularly from the leading organisations whose generous sponsorship allows us to carry out our work.
The Project EDWARD podcast will continue throughout 2024, featuring key people and their role in the Safe System. The episodes will also support the 2024 theme relating to the value of data.
We continue to work hard on presenting content that’s sparkling and compelling – as well as on growing the audience, which we believe should primarily be those with a professional interest in road safety, transport planning, sustainability, active travel, future mobility, etc.
We are also keen to catch up with some of the kind folk who laid on brilliant events last year and who may be willing to provide an update.
You can assist on both counts, so please feel free to put yourself/colleagues/contacts forward as participants, and to share any ideas and do please subscribe and share when we get started.

Project EDWARD 2023 Review – Find out what the team and our many partners achieved throughout the year
Project EDWARD 2023 saw us embark on a collaborative mission towards safer mobility. The theme revolved around the core principle that safety on our roads is the responsibility of each and every individual. Our goal was to create an environment where everyone understands their role in promoting safety, and where we actively contribute to reducing road collisions and fatalities.
Our sincere gratitude goes to our sponsors, whose unwavering support has made this year’s activity possible. We are especially proud to have National Highways as our headline sponsor. Their strong commitment to safety aligns perfectly with our mission. National Highways recognises the value that Project EDWARD brings to improving the road network and promoting safer driving.
This report serves not only to present the outcomes and achievements of our 2023 activities but also to establish a long-term vision that will guide Project EDWARD’s hands-on approach to road safety engagement in years to come. Guided by the Safe System and assisted by an expanding network of friends, supporters and sponsors, we believe there are significant opportunities as we collaborate with partners to reduce the number of lives lost in road traffic collisions.
Thank you all for your continued support.
