Bicycle Helmets

If your child has hemophilia or a related inherited bleeding disorder,
order a free bicycle helmet from the Kentucky Hemophilia Foundation.

Our motto is Be Safe, Have Fun!

While no helmets can protect against all injuries, studies show that wearing an approved cycling helmet can reduce the chance of serious head injuries by 85%. Nearly 1 million children under the age of 14 are treated each year for bicycle injuries. Some 600 of these children have fatal injuries, and another 260,000 will be admitted to hospitals due to bicycle-related head trauma. Boys on bicycles are injured twice as often as girls. Fatalities are more likely to occur during warm months and during peak hours (after school from 3:00 to 6:00 PM).

Measure your child's head according to the chart below for a good fit.
Place measuring tape 1' above eyebrow to measure head circumference.
