A compact, HSE-compliant first aid kit designed for car boots, glove compartments, and personal vehicle storage. Provides essential treatment capability for minor injuries on the road.
Compliance Summary: This kit provides first aid provision for vehicle and travel use. While there is no legal requirement for private vehicles to carry a first aid kit in the UK, it is strongly recommended by road safety organisations. Employers should assess vehicle first aid needs under HSE Driving at Work guidance for staff who drive as part of their duties.
Is this kit suitable for keeping in my car boot?
Yes. This kit is specifically designed for vehicle storage in car boots, glove compartments, or under seats. The compact format takes up minimal space while providing essential first aid provision for minor injuries during journeys.
Do I need this if I already have a workplace first aid kit?
A vehicle first aid kit is separate from workplace provision. If you drive for work, your employer should assess whether vehicle first aid provision is needed under HSE Driving at Work guidance. A vehicle kit ensures you have supplies available during journeys, away from the nearest workplace kit.
