A successful program exposing high school students to the traumatic injuries from high-risk activities will be funded until 2020, the WA Government has announced.

Known as PARTY, the Prevent Alcohol and Risk-Related Trauma in Youth has been successfully run by trauma experts from Royal Perth Hospital.

In that time, more than 10,000 students have been given a first-hand look at the consequences of accidents on and off the road.

The State Government has committed $402,000 from the Road Trauma Trust Account to help fund the program this year.

In 2015, the program was at risk of closure because of uncertainty over government funding.

But while the road safety funding is provided on a year-to-year basis, Health Minister John Day said his department had underwritten the program until 2020.

The PARTY program currently operates at Royal Perth Hospital for metropolitan students, like Chloe-Rose Haggart from Kolbe College in Rockingham

In her final year at school, she will turn 18 before heading to Leaver's Week.

She said the PARTY program had shifted her thinking on the responsibilities she has to herself and others.

"I think I have to be aware that I have more responsibility being 18 and that I can prevent things from happening from not supplying alcohol," she said.

"We aren't invincible and at this age we think we are, and its really good to know these things can happen to us."

Limited access for regional students

Nick Lonie is one of the accident victims who shares his story with students.

He suffered severe head injuries after falling from a utility while drinking at a beach party.

With a titanium plate replacing the front of his fractured skull, it has taken him years to recover.

"It's good that I can tell the real story, and if it impacts on one or two of them to not make a bad decision in life or to stop others making a bad decision, then that's all good," Mr Lonie said.

While the program has reached many metropolitan students it has only made limited inroads into regional WA.

Mr Day said the program was available in Bunbury and Albany, with moves to expand it to Geraldton and potentially Karratha.

Road Safety Minister Liza Harvey was asked if country regions should be a strategic priority for the program, given the disproportionate number of deaths on country roads.

"I think there's certainly merit in looking at expanding that," she said.

"Anything we can do to try to reverse that trend is something we need to consider and look at."
