Give it up. You have zero chance of getting a penny, and rightly so.

https://www.thompsons.law/support/legal-guides/claiming-for-slips-and-falls-on-wet-floors

Owners of public places, such as restaurants, have a duty of care to make sure their premises are reasonably safe under the Occupiers' Liability Act 1957. Therefore, if you were injured after slipping on a wet floor because a spillage was not cleaned up or signposted within a reasonable timeframe, you may have a valid case to claim for compensation.

This means that if you’ve slipped on a wet floor inside premises operated by an organisation that hasn’t tried to protect or warn you of the danger, you may be able to make a claim against that company.

User1977's link says otherwise 

Threads like this always attract comments from people who don't link the general concept of personal injury claims or "compensation culture"

So by extension there are people who do like compensation culture? They do like the extra costs added to their purchases and services and the added restrictions on their daily lives? Interesting.

The world runs on money and the financial penalty imposed provides a lot of safety when you are out and about in any public place (or workplace) but that's not really the point...

Not really the point indeed, but also blatantly untrue. And since this is a money saving site, it's not entirely outrageous to make a comment about spending £1.8k on a second hand phone without the Forum Content police showing up.

Quoted for posterity ... you've cross-pollinated different threads, my friend.

I did indeed, I had two windows open. Oooh, how embarrassing. No, I'm kidding, I'm not embarrassed in the slightest. My reply referencing the correct thread is along much the same lines.

I think they would have to hand it over to a solicitor or an insurance company but not  necessarily to you as the footage may contain other people.

Its a complex matter and will depend on what their privacy policy states about who they will share peoples data with... the issue isnt the OP in the video the issue is everyone else who's in camera and who have a right to privacy. Back in my motor claims days it was very variable, some firms handed over CCTV from a simple request. Some would has for £1-3k to have the video edited to blur identifiable features of anyone else in the video (faces, distinctive clothing, registration plates etc) and others would straight refuse. 


In case the OP isnt aware, any claim for compensation for injury for a minor has to go in front of the court to ensure that the childs rights are being protected and that others arent taking advantage of them. This is going to be one of those cases where sending a few letters gets you a cheque for a grand or two. Any money paid will be held by the Courts Funds Office until the child turns 18 at which point it will be paid to them.
