12 Days of ACC Christmas
We want Kiwis to get out and enjoy Christmas, so what better way to get in the festive spirit than sharing our very own tongue-in-cheek 12 Days of ACC Christmas. Instead of encouraging people to be overly cautious during the silly season, we wanted to share our injury prevention tips in a more interesting way.
Based on the traditional Christmas song we all know and love, we created a video series featuring 12 weird and not so wonderful injuries we saw from last Christmas, and tips on how to avoid them!
Give our 12 Days of ACC Christmas video series a watch. From everyone at ACC we hope you have a very Merry Christmas and happy new year.
