Every year approx. 1750 die of the roads of the UK. Nationally there is a dearth of support available for those affected by a road death. People who have experienced bereavement through road death are vulnerable in the extreme and this can manifest in a number of detrimental ways to physical and mental health.The Road Victims Trust provide free and unconditional emotional and practical support to all persons affected by a road death

Working in partnership with the Police Forces of Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire, the Road Victims Trust will offer its services to all people affected by a road death. This will consist of a bespoke Counselling service that meets the needs of the individual and starts to move them towards a position of coping and recovery. The service will be provided by a team of 50 local Volunteers who are supported by a small team of highly experienced and qualified staff.
