Committed to safeguarding consumer health and safety, JMDA Design, are pleased to announce they will be supporting The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA), having made them their chosen charity for 2019.
RoSPA who have a vision for a life, free from serious accidental injury, campaign globally to reduce serious accidental injuries. The JMDA design team, passionate about supporting the wider community and promoting health and safety, have pledged to become members of RoSPA this year and raise money to fund the charity’s Brighter Beginnings Appeal. This appeal raises particular awareness of RoSPA’s Keeping Kids Safe pack designed for disadvantaged parents/parents-to-be and carers of children under the age of five. Along with lifesaving safety tips and tools, the free pack includes useful products such as an easy-to-fit cupboard latch, a nursery thermometer and a falls prevention height. The JMDA team are eager to start fundraising for the society and have an exciting calendar of charity events planned for the forthcoming year.

In addition to child car seats and nursery products, our experts have designed a variety of electronic products with consumer safety in mind which have helped to re-define the market.” He adds, “As a winner of a Red Dot Concept Design Award for our innovative design of a smart child car seat is testimony to our commitment to safety. Providing optimum protection and enhanced usability, our Smart CRS has thermo-sensors built into the seat which monitor temperature and warns the carer that the child in the seat is in danger of overheating.”
