One shared purpose.
A future without mesothelioma.
UKATA is proud to support Mesothelioma UK. Together, we connect the prevention of future asbestos exposure with specialist care for those already affected by asbestos-related disease.
Different roles. The same commitment to protecting lives.
Mesothelioma is a cancer caused almost exclusively by exposure to asbestos. Because symptoms can develop many years after exposure, its impact continues to be felt by individuals and families across the UK.
At UKATA, our work is focused on the future: improving the quality of asbestos training, strengthening awareness of the risks and helping people recognise when they must avoid disturbing asbestos-containing materials.
Mesothelioma UK is there for people facing the consequences of past exposure, providing specialist support, information and care. Our partnership brings these two vital areas of work together.
Prevention today. Support for those affected.
Helping prevent future exposure
Through high standards of asbestos training and awareness, UKATA works with its members to help people identify risks, understand their responsibilities and make safer decisions around asbestos.
Supporting people living with mesothelioma
Mesothelioma UK supports patients and families affected by mesothelioma through specialist nursing, trusted information, practical and emotional support, and work to improve care and understanding of the disease.
More than a logo. A meaningful commitment.
As a proud Gold Partner, UKATA recognises the importance of Mesothelioma UK's work and the direct connection between our respective missions.
Our partnership provides an opportunity to champion awareness of asbestos risks while shining a light on the specialist support available to people diagnosed with mesothelioma and their loved ones.
It is a reminder of why effective asbestos training matters: preventing avoidable exposure today can help protect the health of future generations.
At UKATA, we are working to prevent the asbestos exposures that could lead to mesothelioma in years to come. Mesothelioma UK is supporting the people and families already living with the consequences of exposure in the past. That is what makes this partnership so important. By bringing prevention and care together, we can raise awareness, support those affected and work towards a future where fewer people face this devastating disease.
