From May 15 to June 1, a preventive campaign "Do Not Leave Children Alone!" will be launched in Lepel District, as well as in all regional and district centers, dedicated to Children's Day.

With the aim of drawing attention to the problem of children's mischief with fire and child fatalities in fires, reducing the number of emergencies involving children, and ensuring their overall safety (at home, outdoors, during recreation, near water bodies, etc.), a preventive campaign "Do Not Leave Children Alone!" will be launched in Lepel District, as well as in all regional and district centers, from May 15 to June 1, dedicated to Children's Day.

The campaign will take place in crowded places where parents spend time with their children. "Photo zones" and "Learning Safety Rules Together" play areas will be organized here, where parents and children can participate in contests, quizzes, and games.

In healthcare facilities (healthy child clinics, maternity clinics, parenting schools), rescuers will conduct sessions with young mothers.

Parent-teacher meetings with the participation of Ministry of Emergency Situations (MES) staff will be held in educational institutions on the topic "Preventing Childhood Injuries – Teaching Children Safety Rules!".

Preventive measures will also be carried out in large families, family-type children's homes, and families with socially vulnerable children.

The campaign will conclude on June 1, International Children's Day, which is traditionally organized on Freedom Square in the town of Lepel. The event will feature thematic contests, games, concert programs, and creative performances, as well as educational and play areas, and demonstrations of rescue equipment and machinery.

Rescuers invite all parents to take care of their children's safety and participate in the campaign!
