The COI Collection Volume 6: Worth the Risk

Complimenting the safety messages in COI Volume 4: Stop! Look! Listen!, this volume of COI films examines the issue of risk in our everyday lives. Here, we get advice on crossing the road, the Welfare State, the dangers of drinking and of playing with matches, the complexities of decimalisation, surviving nuclear attack... and much much more. All peppered with the COIs characteristic mix of horror, humour and gentle persuasion.
