Road accident highlights need to save school crossings

On the same day as Save Derbyshire School Crossing Campaigners put questions about cuts to a meeting at Derbyshire County Council, a Lollypop Lady at their local school in Chesterfield was hit by a car. She was struck on the hand while helping children across the road. What could happen if there was no one to help at school crossings? The petition to keep the patrols got 16,000 signatures.
