AUSTRALIAN ACCIDENT REGISTER IS NOW AUSTRALIA-WIDE

www.accidentregister.info

21 January 2007

The Australian Accident Register website records accurate details of
accidents and serious near misses in the outdoors and adventure
community. The reports are carefully researched and are assembled with
input from emergency and medical services and where possible the
victims and/or others present.

Names are not listed on the site and the wording is non-judgmental. The
purpose is to encourage those involved to step forward with accurate
information so that the resulting reports are a useful educational tool
for readers.

The site is widely referenced by educational groups, commercial
operators, recreational climbers, canyoners, paddlers, bushwalkers and
mountain bikers.

The site is also used by the media and has helped improve the accuracy
of their reporting of past accidents.

Until recently the site was being run on a volunteer basis and covered
accidents in the Blue Mountains.

The site has now been set up to cover national accidents and a site
manager has been appointed to help assemble and write the reports. All
reports will be checked by the editorial committee.

For details on the site, the editorial committee and how it is funded
