The Nubian/African boundry and the Somalian boundry
Active volcanoes tend to occur at plate boundaries or in rare cases where there are hot spots in the mantle (such as the one responsible for the volcanism creating the Hawaiian island chain). The UK is not located near a plate boundary or a mantle hotspot! As for large earthquakes, these also tend to occur at plate boundaries and as we have stated above, the UK isn't located near one...
they are formed along the crustal movements of the earth.
No. This is because it is not near the plate boundaries
Most of the world's earthquakes occur along tectonic plate boundaries, particularly in regions known as the "Ring of Fire," which encircles the Pacific Ocean. This area is characterized by high seismic activity due to the movement and interaction of several tectonic plates. Additionally, earthquakes can occur inland along fault lines, but coastal regions and areas near plate boundaries experience the highest frequency of seismic events.
Near plate boundaries.
along plate boundaries
Most volcanoes appear at the tectonic plate boundaries where friction between the plates and the mantle makes magma which then push through near the plate boundaries forming volcanoes.

Tectonic plates move along, against, or away from eachother at their boundaries. These movements produce earthquakes
Earthquakes are most likely to occur near tectonic plate boundaries, where tectonic plates interact and cause stress to build up and release in the form of seismic activity. These boundaries include convergent boundaries where plates collide, divergent boundaries where plates separate, and transform boundaries where plates slide past each other.
Everything on earth is on a tectonic plate. Massachusetts is on the North American Plate. However, there are no plate boundaries or tectonically active areas near Massachusetts.

Earthquakes most commonly occur at or near tectonic plate boundaries.
The three tectonic plates near Kobe are the Eurasian Plate, the Philippine Sea Plate, and the Pacific Plate. These plates interact at the boundaries near Kobe, contributing to the region's seismic activity.
Subduction zones are found near convergent plate boundaries, where two tectonic plates collide and one plate is forced beneath the other, leading to the formation of deep ocean trenches and volcanic arcs.
Intraplate coastlines or passive margins are continental coastlines that occur within the interior of a tectonic plate, away from active plate boundaries. These areas are characterized by lower tectonic activity and less frequent geological events compared to coastlines near plate boundaries.
The main factor determining earthquake risk in a location is its proximity to tectonic plate boundaries. Areas near convergent plate boundaries, transform plate boundaries, or along faults are at a higher risk of experiencing earthquakes due to tectonic activity.
