Mesothelioma - Your Help Needed

The CWU is affiliated to the Occuptaional and Environmental Diseases Association who deal with asbestos related illnesses.

They are currently dealing with a case involving a Mesothelioma sufferer and need information regarding the presence of asbestos in old telephone switchboards during World War 2 and thos emade after the war. Perhaps in the cords for example.

The Mesothelioma sufferer specifically worked on them between 1959 & 1961.

Bary Gapes, Secretary BT Unions London Health & Safety Committee, has been contacted by the organisation and he would be grateful for anyone having knowledge of this getting in touch with him direct, so he can pass the information on to them.
