PPL accident stats

I'm re-starting (and hopefully completing) my PPL next August; and my wife, who happily admits to being GA-ignorant, is worried over my safety. I have tried to allay her fears by explaining that for every light single she sees over our neck of the woods there may be another hundred or so (complete guess!) in other parts of the UK bumbling around not crashing. This does not help.

It strikes me that an official sort of 'probability' statistic might do the trick. Anyone know where I can get hold of a "1 injury per X-thousand PPL flights" kind of figure?

TIA,

Kev.
