Road Trauma Support Group NSW

 

We are the voice of families of road trauma: Our vision is that no family in NSW will ever experience the death of a loved one through the criminal act of another road user (Road Trauma Death). We are a not-for-profit organisation based in NSW dedicated to helping support families of road trauma.

Founded in 2021, the Group was established when a group of families came together in grief. Our mission is to work with all key stakeholders and be an active advocate for safer roads for all road users in NSW with a special focus on:

  • providing effective support to family’s affected by the Road Trauma Death of a loved one

  • enabling the delivery of educational programs and public awareness campaigns and changing the vocabulary associated with Road Trauma Deaths in NSW

  • driving reforms to the criminal justice system with respect to Road Trauma Deaths in NSW. Sign our petition here

The Group meets regularly providing a safe, sensitive and ongoing forum for family members. At these support meetings, ideas and experiences are shared in a confidential and caring environment. Through shared experience and collaborative networks we aim to alleviate the suffering and isolation felt by many families. Our vision is that no family in NSW will ever experience the death of a loved one through the criminal act of another road user (Road Trauma Death).

The Road Trauma Support Group NSW Inc. (RTSG) is supported by Transport for NSW Centre for Road Safety, along with generous donations from our members, friends, caring members of the public and our corporate sponsors.
