Sports and Leisure Injury Compensation Claims
Perhaps your daughter broke her arm on a bouncy castle? Maybe your mother broke her neck falling off a horse? Or maybe you fell down a cliff during a badly run climbing course?
There is no doubt that sports and leisure activities are enjoyable and good for you. But they can also be dangerous and result in injury.
Minor low impact injuries can have a significant impact on your ability to continue to undertake the sport you enjoy, while serious injuries can have devastating consequences for you and your family – affecting not only the way you live your life, but also your earning potential or your ability to earn a living at all.
Examples of sport and leisure accidents include:
- Skiing accidents
- Horse riding accidents
- Camping accidents
- Caravan accidents
Sports and Leisure Injury Compensation Claims
Because of the risks involved, those who organise and operate sports and leisure activities are obliged to undertake a risk assessment and identify all unnecessary risks to which participants may be subjected. There may be many of these, including:
- The quality of the facilities and equipment
- The behaviour of other participants
- The quality of the training and supervision
Regardless of the cause, if you have been involved in an accident during a sports or leisure activity that was not your fault, you could be entitled to compensation.
