20,000 helmets from CyTA

THE CYPRUS Telecommunications Authority (CyTA) will donate 20,000 children’s bicycle helmets to the police today in a ceremony at the Traffic Education Park opposite police headquarters.

CyTA chairman Stathis Kittis will hand over the helmets as part of the organisation’s efforts to contribute to road safety and cultivate a culture of road awareness among children. The helmets will be given to pupils that visit the Park as part of their school’s training programmes.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
