Greater Manchester Asbestos Victims Support Group (GMAVSG) is recruiting for two positions, the Co-ordinator position, and a Worker position.
The GMAVSG office is in Hulme, Manchester. All staff work mainly from home, but must be able to visit clients in their homes (and sometimes hospital). We cover Greater Manchester and some of the neighbouring areas of Cheshire, Lancashire, and Derbyshire.
GMAVSG provides comprehensive free advice on benefits, and basic information on compensation, to people with asbestos diseases. Our help is free. Most of our clients have mesothelioma, a terminal cancer . Most of our clients are men in their 60s, 70s, and 80s who were exposed to asbestos at work. We also campaign on issues affecting asbestos victims. GMAVSG runs two support groups: Families Group for people who have lost a loved one to asbestos disease, Living Well for people with mesothelioma and their families/carers
