Back to School With Dashel Helmets. Hello everyone, I hope you are well. In today’s post, I will share a press release on Back to School With Dashel Helmets. As the school year begins, it’s the perfect time for families to adopt healthier, eco-friendly habits like cycling to school. Dashel’s new Ocean Range of children’s helmets makes this easy, offering a stylish, safe, and sustainable option that grows with your child and even helps clean up our oceans using recycled ghost nets.
Back To School With Dashel Helmets
For many families, the start of the school year in September is as much about new starts and resolutions as the New Year. With the long summer holidays behind us and a chance to regroup and recharge the batteries a little, it is a great time to make better lifestyle choices moving forward.
An excellent new school year resolution is cycling to school with your children. It is suitable for physical and mental health and an ideal way to start and end the school day. Swapping four wheels for two is another small way to reduce carbon footprint. Of course, you will need the proper safety gear for your children, and if you are looking for a great helmet, the new range from Dashel has it all.
British cycle helmet maker Dashel is known for making cycling helmets that are safe and sustainable while also looking super-stylish. They have just launched their new Ocean Range of helmets for children, designed to grow with your child. This means they last longer, making them even more eco-friendly and of great value.
Children grow fast, and sometimes cycle helmets, like shoes, are worn for one school year and thrown away as the child outgrows them. In line with their steadfast commitment to sustainability, Dashel’s new helmets ‘grow’ as your child does. The helmet has a ring dial adjuster inside, allowing it to fit heads as small as 52cm (approx. four years old). This can be altered as the child grows, and when the adjuster feels too snug, it can be taken out and swapped for pads. This makes the helmet fit up to two sizes larger without compromising safety. When the helmet is finally outgrown, it can be passed on to smaller siblings or returned to Dashel for recycling.

Ocean Range
The Kids’ Ocean Range comes in five colours, including two branded Sea Shepherd helmets: the black Jolly Roger helmet (perfect for pirate enthusiasts), the Blue Whale helmet (perfect for nature enthusiasts), and red, yellow and turquoise.
The part your kids will love is that each Ocean Range helmet has a loop at the back made from ghost nets – discarded fishing nets which pollute the planet’s seas and kill millions of birds, fish and marine mammals yearly. Global charity Sea Shepherd locates and removes these dumped nets, and Bracenet recycles them into new products. Dashel uses these ghost nets as loops for the back of the helmet, making the helmets sustainable and part of the solution to removing plastic from our oceans. It’s bound to be the talk of the playground!
The first batch of helmets all have loops made from nets retrieved from the Baltic Sea, where seals, whales, and dolphins swim. Purchasing these loops from nets also supports Sea Shepherd, with 10% of the sale price going directly to the charity.
These ghost net loops are perfect for attaching lights to helmets and improving visibility when cycling or scooting. Dashel sells Pixel lights on its website, but plenty of other brands work with helmets.
Team GB
Alternatively, if this Olympics has inhaled your child, Dashel’s Team GB helmets are perfect for them! Dashel has held the Team GB Olympic licence for some years and is passionate about encouraging everyday cyclists, whatever their age, while raising money for Team GB athletes. Fifteen per cent of every sale in this range goes to Team GB.
Whether your child cycles to school as though competing with the elite or enjoying a leisurely ride, the stylish design—including the Team GB logo, Olympic rings, and choice of colours—red, white, and blue—means they will be doing it in style.
Safety First
Dashel helmets ‘eco credentials and great looks will undoubtedly convince the kids, but of course, the most crucial factor is that the helmets are safe. Having been certified and tested for cycling and scooting, parents can be reassured that these are some of the safest helmets on the market.
The new children’s range is available online at www.dashel.co.uk and from selected retailers (RRP £55.00).
I hope you enjoyed that.
Talk soon.

We don’t have anyone who goes to school by bicycle but this helmet looks nice. Definitely would be useful for when going to school. It is also healthier to use them going to school instead of cars.

Thanks for the review and information about Dashed Helmets. I’m looking for new preschool helmets for my child care center. These look perfect!
Catalina
What a fantastic idea to combine safety, sustainability, and style! I love how Dashel Helmets are not only protecting our kids but also helping clean up our oceans!

Nnniiiiccceeee…lightweight helmets are best for the little ones. I just hope they aren’t as brittle, as their light layer of weight. I’d gladly get myself one.
Claudia
Helmets are so important, and I’m still so amazed that I see so many kids out there who aren’t wearing them. These are great!

What I love about these helmets is how cool they look. You can lecture kids all day long about safety, but if they think their helmet looks lame, they won’t wear it.
