Asbestos claiming more victims on our doorstep
Between January 2006 and December 2010, there were 23 deaths attributed to mesothelioma — a terminal cancer of the lung wall — in the area, the equivalent to 3.7 in every 100,000 people.
The average for England and Wales during the same period was 2.5 per 100,000 people.
From 2006 to 2010, 12 people died as a result of mesothelioma in East Staffordshire and nine in North West Leicestershire.
The figure has been released by the nonprofit campaign group the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL).
APIL president David Bott said: “More people die of mesothelioma in South Derbyshire per head of the population than in most other parts of the country.
“This is bad enough, but the number of men dying from this disease is expected to peak during the next five years and what many people don’t realise is that hundreds of sufferers across the UK cannot get the compensation they need to help them through the last days of their life.”
