Annual review of accidents
RoSPA’s Annual Review of Accidents brings together the latest available UK data on accidental deaths and hospital admissions across road, home, work and leisure settings. It shows that accidents remain a leading cause of preventable harm, with tens of thousands of people killed or seriously injured each year.
National accident prevention strategy
Ground-breaking research reveals that UK accident rates have risen sharply over the last decade. We urgently need government support to tackle this issue.
Safer stairs
Improving safety standards for stair design will significantly reduce the number of people needlessly dying and getting hurt.
Fall prevention
Falls are unexpected and shocking. Having a fall can happen to anyone, but they are most common and tend to be more serious for people in later life. And the impact is huge.
