You can apply to the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA), under the Criminal Injuries Compensation Scheme 2012, if you were injured or bereaved as a result of this incident. You can also call the CICA helpline on 0300 003 3601.

You do not need a paid representative, such as a solicitor or claims management company, to apply to CICA for compensation.
