I have agreed to do a presentation on risk assessment to a number of local voluntary groups. I know what I want to say about RA, but am looking to get hold of a number of statistics that might answer the initial question, "Why should we bother anyway?"
Have general stats for deaths, RIDDORS, ill-health AT WORK, but am looking for some figures on numbers of people killed or injured at carnivals, village fetes, fairgrounds, organised bonfire/firework displays, sports club outings, motorbike shows, etc. Any ideas please?
Mike

Sorry for late response - only just spotted query.
Most useful source was repeat was the Home & Leisure Accident Report published by DTI - downloadable from web. This took data from admissions at A&E depts of selected hospitals to calculate possible numbers of incidents nation wide. No "incidence data" since no info on how many people undertaking activity.
However, report is no longer published!
