Swindon & Southwest Asbestosgroup

If you have applied to the JobCenter for any benefit as a result of suffering from asbestos disease or because your partner or member of the family has suffered from the same and been disappointed by the response, we provide a free advice service on appealing against these decisions. 

We will give you advice on the matter free of charge and then if appropriate file an appeal and deal with this for you. 

We will attend any appeal hearings that are required.  If you require this service please telephone  Janice Howells 01793 813616. 

Swindon Asbestos Group provide a free advice service by trained Macmillan workers to come to your home if you live in the Swindon area.

They will give free advice on a number of benefits to which people suffering from asbestos disease and their families are entitled.

They will help you fill in the forms free of charge and send them off. 

They will deal with any appeals free of charge that may be needed. 

If you would like to have a free home visit to discuss your benefit entitlement please telephone Janice Howells on 01793 813616.
