The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA)

As you may have seen in the news this morning, we are urging the UK government to adopt a National Accident Prevention Strategy (NAPS) to reduce the rising number of accidental deaths. Accidents claim over 20,000 lives annually, making them the leading cause of preventable deaths in young adults. We urgently need the government to recognise the issue and adopt a strategy to deal with it.
