road safety and continues to this day. The
Tufty Club was set up in 1961 as a nationwide

safety to the under fives.

various road safety dangers.
Why?
• Did the road safety organisations choose
talking animals in the advertisements?
Young children...
• Obviously still need to be taught the
importance of crossing the road safely, but

• We are going to create some goodies and
baddies to teach young children about cyber
security.

Public Service Ads.

• Consider what, when, where, why, how.
• Can you see an opportunity to make money
and so potentially extend or expand the
project?
