Pleural Plaques Campaign Makes Progress

At the recent TUC Congress the whole union movement supported the campaign for compensation for victims of Pleural Plaques. The video about the victims of Plaques has received some fantastic exposure - it was played on the BBC news numerous times and lots of newspapers have written articles about it as well.

The campaign is continuing to pick up momentum - now we need to pile on the pressure for a final push for justice. The Government are currently making their decision about whether or not to change the law on Plaques - we need to make sure that they know the strength of feeling out there so they do the right thing.

There is now a tool on the website which lets you send an email straight to two of the key players in this issue - Peter Mandelson and Alistair Darling - which calls on them to do the right thing and provide the help that sufferers of Plaques need. Sending your email will take less than 30 seconds - but as thousands of people are involved in this campaign, if everyone acts then together we can make a big difference.
