Welcome to Sliptember: stop slips, make the world safer, and win some prizes

Slips are the hidden danger we walk over every single day. They cause more major injuries than machinery accidents or falls from height, cost the UK over £1 billion annually, and devastate lives, yet most organisations still rely on yellow signs and luck. That changes with Sliptember: a movement to raise awareness, share proven science-backed methods, and help you take real action. This month, I'm giving you the tools, insights, and even prizes to stop slips, protect people, and build safer, stronger organisations.

Highlights:

Stanley May's tragic story: why slips are never "just accidents"
Slips by the numbers: 32% of all workplace injuries, 300,000+ hospital admissions yearly
The CHIMES framework: contamination, heel, individual, maintenance, environment, surface
Science vs. signs: why pendulum testing beats yellow cones every time
Slipology in action: clients achieving 57%+ fewer incidents
How you can join Sliptember: scorecard, free workshop, and daily insights
Share & win: free book plus entry into a draw for professional slip tests worth £595 each
The bigger picture: from cutting claims to boosting morale and trust
