Crash Trailer Project  - The Denmark RoadWise Committee launched the crash trailer on 10 December at the Christmas pageant to highlight the need for care on our roads, especially by younger drivers. The crash trailer has been a joint project involving students from Denmark High School in designing and making the trailer and local youth in the design and application of the spray art work. The project aimed to engage local youth in a road safety project and to promote responsible attitudes to driving.
