Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Clydeside Action On Asbestos (CAA) is a registered charity which was formed in 1984 to provide advice and assistance to those who suffer from asbestos related disease and their families.  CAA is the foremost charity in the U.K. providing this service.  CAA aims to campaign for and provide support to those who have been affected by asbestos related disease. 

Mesothelioma is a devastating disease.  This incurable condition affects both men and women who came into contact with asbestos many years ago.  CAA provides a comprehensive welfare rights service, advising on benefit and compensation entitlement and support groups around the country for those diagnosed with mesothelioma and their families to help with the emotional impact of the disease.  It actively campaigns for amendments to the law and social policy to promote positive changes for sufferers, which assist them in increasing their quality of life, provides specialist advice on claiming industrial injuries benefits and state compensation as well as all other state benefits and advises clients of their legal right to pursue a civil case for compensation; as the majority of cases of asbestos disease continue to be caused by negligence on behalf of their current or former employer.
