Hi RFAA Plymouth Team,
I'm writing you to see if you are still actively updating the resources you have listed at: http://pdb.rfaaplymouth.org/links.html.
My name is David Giraldo and I work in the Public Outreach Department of The Mesothelioma Center (Asbestos.com).
Those who have worked on shipyards, ports and aboard ships were at risk of asbestos exposure and developing mesothelioma, a rare cancer that can take 20-50 years to develop. Our website features extensive information on asbestos and we work 1-on-1 with individuals to help them find local doctors, treatment centers and support groups all at no cost.
With this said, I think adding our link on your site would be a valuable addition and can help inform former, current and future maritime workers and port officials of the dangers of asbestos and the steps involved if affected.
Please take a look at some of the great information we have at https://www.asbestos.com/mesothelioma/uk/ or https://www.asbestos.com/occupations/shipyard-workers/ and let me know if you have any questions. I would love to speak with you more about this.
Respectfully,
David Giraldo
