FatallyFlawed.org.uk was founded by two professional engineers: Peter M Munro CEng MIET and David Peacock IEng FIET

We are from different parts of the country and came together in an attempt to raise awareness after we had each encountered the use of “safety socket covers” in our respective churches. As engineers we were horrified to realise that ignorance of actual electrical safety was leading to parents and others making flawed decisions in what they thought was the best interests of children in their care.

FatallyFlawed.org.uk is delighted to announce that Dr Adam Hart-Davis, author and broadcaster, is the Patron of our campaign. Dr Hart-Davis has received many honours, of particular relevance is that
he was the first recipient of The Public Promotion of Engineering Medal awarded by the Royal Academy of Engineering for his work in bringing an understanding of engineering to a wider public.

“I normally refuse to join in campaigns but this seemed so important, and the ‘safety’ covers so absurd and dangerous, that I agreed”
Dr Adam Hart-Davis in a recent interview.
