We are a large construction company working on the Olympic Park Project in London. With the school holidays fast approaching, children entering working areas are a concern. Back in 2003 The European H&S week was centred on child safety of construction sites.
The HSE produced a booklet entitled Stay Safe-Building Site Safety that was excellent media to bring the message to schools etc. It is still available on line but is PDF format. My request is: has anybody still got any hard copies along with any stickers, posters etc on this campaign?
I would very much appreciate any assistance members could give

Is there not an HSE video [free] called something like "game over" that was designed for schoolchildren warning of the dangers of playing on building sites.
There was also another [free] animated one about safety signs I think was called "sign story" OR "safe sign story" a kind of play on Toy story.
I am aware that "videos" are on the way out but maybe the HSE have reproduced these on DVD, sorry I cannot be more specific

What's the problem with pdf format?

I particularly like the poster by Longbow Designs:

I have no connection with the company.

Many thanks for the responses so far. I will be taking the video advice further and will let you know the outcome.
PDF is fine although the reproduction quality from PDF into poster/booklet degrades. Whilst the HSE will allow reproduction there are however issues over copyright now, in particular usage of the cartoon characters.
