AN INNOVATIVE BIKE HELMET
INCLUSIVITY In her work as an occupational therapist, Tina Singh has seen how devastating a brain injury can be.
Singh also knows that a bicycle helmet reduces the risk of brain injury by up to 69 per cent. But until recently, none of her three active school-aged sons had a helmet that fit properly. That's because, as a sign of their Sikh identity, they wear their long hair tied in a top knot under a patka, or small head covering.
Taking matters into her own hands, Singh, of Ontario, Canada, spent several years developing child-sized helmets with space for a patka on top. Earlier this year, she launched Bold Helmets, as she has branded them. They were a labour of love for Singh, who wanted to promote greater diversity in sport by ensuring Sikh children could safely participate. Singh's helmets are safety certified for bicycling, inline skating, kick scootering and skateboarding.
