Original Note:
It is not an offence not to wear a helmet whilst cycling however wearing one reduces risk of serious injury to children if involved in an RTC. The constables were merely giving words of advice to do so as cyclists are vulnerable road users. https://firstaidforlife.org.uk/cycle-helmets-do-they-really-save-lives/#:~:text=Data%20from%20hospitals%20show%2040,mid%2Dface%20by%2065%25.
