Safety first

Did you know that every year in the UK around 4,000 people die in accidents in their own homes? Almost half of these people die because of a fall. A lot of these falls happen because the stairs in the people's homes don't have enough light, or because there are objects on the stairs. In addition, millions of people in the UK are taken to hospital for minor injuries such as burns, sprains and cuts that happen at home. A lot of these accidents happen to children, with 40,000 experienced by children younger than five years of age. These numbers are very high, but there are a lot of simple ways to avoid many common accidents. For example, heavy objects should not be on high shelves. Medicine bottles, however, should be on high shelves so that children can’t get to them. People should wear suitable clothing when doing housework and jobs round the house.

Every year in the UK less than 3000 people die because of a fall.
