Exclamation Helmets - Should you? and Which?

I just wanted to know what the general feeling is amongst CPL(H)'s towards wearing Flight Helmets in civilian flight operations.

The CPL's I have spoken to share a common indifference towards a relatively inexpensive piece of kit which could save lives and/or eyesight in an emergency.

Whilst I am aware that in the UK at least the emergency services mandate the use of Flight Helmets (ALpha?), no one else seems to be that fussed.

Gven the benefits on offer, is it not time that there is an initiative to start thinking 'safety first'?
