Why subscribe?
The Preventable Deaths Tracker was founded in 2020 by Dr Georgia Richards and is run by a team of academics, clinicians, coroners, epidemiologists, students and scientists.
We analyse coroners’ Prevention of Future Deaths reports (PFDs) and develop a database to identify trends and lessons to reduce avoidable harms.
We publish widely in peer-reviewed journals and conduct outreach to raise awareness of PFDs. But our work is currently not funded, so your subscription helps us to continue our research and outreach to prevent premature deaths.
Subscribe now to get full access to the newsletter, archived content, and to make comments on our posts.
As we grow, there will be subscriber-only content - don’t miss out!
