Slip, trip, and fall claims in Bristol: The local stats

Slips, trips, and falls are all too common in Bristol, and the numbers show why claiming compensation is worth it. Here’s the picture in our city:

  • Incident scale: Nationally, slips, trips, and falls make up 21% of personal injury claims, with over 52,000 UK cases yearly. Bristol, with its 467,000 residents, likely sees 1,000–1,500 of these annually, based on population share.
  • Council pay-outs: Bristol City Council paid out over £600,000 for personal injury claims between 2015 and 2020, including a £60,000 settlement for a single trip-or-fall case on a public path (Bristol Live, 2020).
  • Workplace slips: The Health and Safety Executive notes slips and trips as the top cause of workplace injuries UK-wide (30% of 604,000 non-fatal incidents). In Bristol’s 5,000–7,000 estimated workplace injuries, hundreds are slip-related, sparking claims.
  • Public spaces: With busy spots like the harbourside and Christmas Steps, Bristol’s wet weather and uneven surfaces drive up falls, local reports suggest dozens of claims yearly against shops and councils.

These stats prove slips, trips, and falls hit Bristol hard. If you’re one of the affected, Marley Solicitors can help you claim what’s yours.

What counts as a slip, trip, or fall claim in Bristol?

You might have a case if someone else’s negligence caused your fall, such as:

  • Wet or unmarked floors (e.g., in a St George supermarket)
  • Uneven pavements or potholes (e.g., on Gloucester Road)
  • Poorly lit stairs (e.g., in a Fishponds flat block)
  • Cluttered walkways (e.g., at a Horfield workplace)

If it happened in Bristol and left you injured, from bruises to broken bones, Marley Solicitors can fight for your compensation, covering pain, medical costs, and lost earnings.
