Declarations
:
: Specific project approval was granted by the Leeds Trinity University School of Health and Social Sciences research ethics committee (SHSS-2020-03), and a formal data agreement was signed between the authors and RoSPA (the data owner) prior to any data being exchanged. This written agreement explicitly defined the scope of data use, secure storage, and dissemination of related research findings. Participant consent was not obtained because this study focused only on data relating to fatal incidents recorded by RoSPA over a pre-defined time period.
