Accidents In England
By michal costaminnego
There is a big variation in how different types of accident affect different parts of the country. For example, rural areas have more road accidents. But not only. Big cities like London also suffers from a plague of road accidents. Every year 2,000 Londoners dies and 77,000 are admitted to hospital with injuries, and only in 2004, 4 thousands of people were killed or seriously injured in road accidents in London. Although the scale of London's accidents and injuries is not increasing it's still a big problem (as for England it has higher rate of pedestrian accidents than most of European countries).
Birmingham's one of the most common accident is building site accident. Usually happens during the work that is also one of the most dangerous place. In general, thousands of accidents happen whilst handling heavy items or climbing on heights. Working in construction industry is especially dangerous and those workers are at much greater risk for injuries than any other types of industry in the UK. Statistically they are even six times more likely to be injured. The falling from height is the most common fatal accident at work in the UK. Those who live in Bristol usually suffer from sport injuries, especially while playing football (based on number of local forms as accident injury claims Birmingham, accident injury claims London and accident injury claims Bristol ).
Accidents in England also vary in age of victims and places. Very young and elderly people are the most likely to risk death or injury as a result of accidents. Accidental

injury is the leading cause of deaths about young people and children in England. As it was said, the most popular place of accidents is road, work, but also home is not a safety place. A third of all accidents to seniors occur in the home, mostly as a result of trips or falls.
People who were victims of accidents in England may file a compensation claim. To do that a person should contact with local compensation claim solicitor who has a great experience and specialises in gaining compensation for victims of accidents and injuries. This solicitor will probably show the compensation guide and help to fill in one of special forms to make a free compensation claim. Depend on places and type of accident the names of application forms are for example 'injury at work compensation claim ', 'accident injury claims bath'. (And gaining the injury compensation Bristol doesn't vary from gaining accident or an injury compensation Cardiff).
Good information is that the English government recently launched an awareness campaign to cut the number of accidents and injuries of its citizens.
