If you've been in a car accident, you know how quickly your life can change. Accidents can cause a range of injuries, some of which are minor, while others are serious or life-changing. When an accident happens, the first thing most people think about is their health, particularly if they have been affected by a serious injury. It may help to know that you can often claim compensation to support your recovery and address any financial losses caused by an accident.

Four men have been convicted of the sexual abuse of a teenage girl in Kirklees and Wakefield between 1994 and 2000, when the girl was between 13 and 20.    

If you’ve been involved in an accident and believe a cyclist was at fault, you may be wondering whether you can claim compensation. A bike accident may result in more serious injuries to the cyclist than anyone else involved. Nevertheless, whether you were the driver of a car, a passenger or another person involved in the collision, you may be able to seek compensation if the accident was not your fault.

If you experienced abuse while in care in Scotland, you may still be able to apply to Scotland’s Redress Scheme, even if you now live elsewhere in the UK or abroad.

For many people, speaking about abuse experienced in childhood is incredibly difficult. Deciding whether to come forward, in any way, can take time.

For families whose children were placed in the care of Hesley Group homes in Doncaster, the past few years have been deeply distressing. Allegations of widespread abuse, involving some of the most vulnerable children in society, have left lasting trauma and many unanswered questions.

Playgrounds are meant to be places where children can explore, climb, run and test their confidence. A few bumps and scrapes are part of growing up, and most playground accidents are minor. But some injuries are more serious, often because a playground was not as safe as it should have been. 

An update has been issued by the Anglican Church Southern Queensland regarding former Priest in Charge, Kesh Govan, following the outcome of an independent investigation into historic allegations of abuse.
