Thompsons, Ian is at the fore front of the campaign to restore
compensation payments for Pleural Plaques victims, he gave a speech
at the Wallsend Memorial Hall before the church service at St
Luke's which is only a few hundred yards from the now derelict
shipyards such as Swan Hunters where so many workers contracted
Asbestos related diseases like Mesothelioma, many of these former
employee's have died, including Alans Uncle, Sid Dunkerley and
sadly many more are still suffering.

fronts each service of rememberance of those who have been killed
at work and their families.
