Slips, trips, and falls in Somerset: The facts

Slips, trips, and falls are a leading cause of injuries in Somerset, often resulting in significant physical and financial consequences. Here are some key statistics:

• In 2019/20, Somerset recorded 3,285 emergency hospital admissions for falls among people aged 65 and over, with many linked to slips and trips in public spaces or workplaces.
• In 2023/24, slips, trips, and falls accounted for 30% of non-fatal workplace injuries in the South West, including Somerset, particularly in retail and hospitality sectors.
• Nationally, slips and trips on the same level caused 32% of reported injuries in 2023/24, a trend reflected in Somerset’s high streets and rural footpaths, leading to numerous compensation claims.

These figures highlight the need for expert legal support. Marley Solicitors is dedicated to helping Somerset residents secure compensation after slips, trips, and falls.
