Save Phoenix House asbestos support - Saturday 15th October.
Location: Spirit of Barrow statue, Barrow in Furness
Please get along if you can.
This Saturday there will be a protest in Barrow to Save Phoenix House, the DWP site which processes Industrial Injuries Disablement Benefit, asbestos compensation, and other claims relating to work-related disease.
The closure will see thousands of claimants lose a dedicated and expert service, based in the place where asbestos levels are higher than anywhere else in the country. Dozens of PCS members also risk losing their jobs.
