Lots happening during Global Asbestos Awareness Week (#2025GAAW) including the UK launch of a devastating new report

This week is Global Asbestos Awareness Week (#2025GAAW) - an international initiative designed to raise awareness of asbestos.  Here at Alpha Tracker we support GAAW each year with a variety of initiatives alongside industry organisations such as UKATA, the HSE and UK and international charities.

There have been a number of tragic stories in the press this week that relate to the (lack of) awareness of asbestos and the impact on lives.  Here is one such story - a vintage railway engineer who worked on the iconic Orient Express but wasn't adequately protected:  https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14558655/Iconic-Orient-Express-gave-incurable-cancer-Vintage-carriage-restorer-line-500-000-damages-exposure-deadly-asbestos-working-luxury-sleeper-train.html

In this internationally important week, a new UK report has been launched by Asbestos Information CIC mapping the presence of asbestos across the UK and comparing risks against more familiar ones (eg the danger of being killed in a road accident).  We'll be offering our full support, giving our Alpha Tracker asbestos consultancy clients the opportunity to extract data in formats suitable for sharing.

The Daily Mail have covered the report's launch - read here

Alpha Tracker has a large number of integrations enabling data sharing including the OpenAsbestos data sharing protocol - read more here: https://alpha-tracker.co.uk/integrations
