Can anyone out there help? I seem to remember a H&S campaign from a while ago that focused on the number of people who don't go home from work because of work-place accidents. I have a poster in my mind of a man with a caption that was similar to ' will you be going home today?' It may have been a construction campaign? I can't find it or any reference to it. Does anyone else remember this and would you be able to point me in the right direction? Cheers.

Yes it was the agriculture one - free torch and piece of bale twine with a 'do not forget-me-knot' tied in it. Got mine ;<)

Hi All, Thank you for your replies. I have been throught he HSE list of archived campaigns and can't find it. It isn't the current agriculture campaign, although that is similar. The campaign that I'm trying to find is a few years old now. It could even have been something run by an individual company? :0)

Hi Emma Don't know about any HSE one but I was involved in a similar campaign in Queensland, Australia. I'm biased, but I thought it was pretty good. Here's the link. http://www.deir.qld.gov....ce/homecomings/index.htm

Emma: Are you by any chance thinking of a drink drive campaign run by the police a few years ago. The caption was along the lines of "how will you be getting home tonight?" with photographs on (I think four) different posters showing an ambulance, a police car, a coffin and a taxi.... Steve

Hi Steve, and thanks. I know the one you mean and no, it isn't that one. The problem I've hit funnily enough is sort of related because every Google search I run throws up home safety or driving based campaigns. The campaign that Tim directed me to in the earlier post is good and really similar in context to the one I'm sure I've seen. The message in the UK campaign was more negative that the Aussie version. Emma.
