Unsure if this has been seen by others, but if you go on the following website, they are trying to encourage people to cycle - great!?
http://www.getmeactive.org.uk/content/resources
But they also have a lot of pictures of people cycling, not wearing helmets and even cite that helmets aren't mandatory! I know they aren't a legal requirement, but surely wearing a helmet should be encouraged, not sidelined?
I do a lot of fundraising for the Wessex Neuroscience Centre and one of their leading surgeons despairs when he sees people riding without & has been known to give his business card to those who don't. I am due to give a presentation to year 7 pupils in the Autumn about cycle safety & can't believe this sort of organisation are willing to blatantly disregard helmets like this!
