Accidents abroad: The numbers you need to know
Holidays should be a break, not a burden, but accidents abroad are more common than you might think, especially for Manchester’s frequent travellers. The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) reports that over 17,000 British nationals needed consular assistance for accidents or injuries abroad in 2022/23. With Manchester Airport handling 28.1 million passengers in 2023 (Manchester Airport stats), a significant chunk of those travellers came from our city, and some returned with more than just souvenirs.
The Association of British Travel Agents (ABTA) estimates that 1 in 5 UK holidaymakers, around 12 million people, face some form of mishap abroad each year, from slips by the pool to food poisoning or road accidents. For Mancunians jetting off to Spain, Turkey, or beyond, these incidents can mean medical bills, lost enjoyment, and long-term recovery. Marley Solicitors knows the stats, and we know how to turn them into successful claims.
What can you claim for?
An accident abroad doesn’t just spoil your trip, it can disrupt your life. Marley Solicitors will help you claim compensation for:
- Injuries: From fractures and burns to illness like gastroenteritis.
- Financial losses: Medical costs, travel expenses, or cancelled plans.
- Pain and suffering: For the physical and emotional toll you’ve endured.
- Future needs: Like on-going treatment or time off work back in Manchester.
