SOCOTEC UK & Ireland partners with
Mesothelioma UK

SOCOTEC will become a gold partner of Mestothelioma UK, with the donation helping to ensure patients and families receive vital specialist care and support when they need it most.

The partnership demonstrates SOCOTEC's commitment to supporting individuals and their families impacted by mesothelioma, a devastating form of cancer that affects the mesothelium and which is predominantly caused by exposure to asbestos fibres.

With over 2,700 people diagnosed with mesothelioma each year, the UK has the highest incident rate of the disease globally. Despite the scale of the disease, not all patients have access to the same level of care and support across the country.

Mesothelioma UK's mission is to provide specialist nurses offering expert care and guidance, experience-based research, care options availability, as well as access to high-quality, evidence-based information and support services.

Through SOCOTEC’s sponsorship of Mesothelioma UK, the funds donated will help part-fund bespoke treatment and care, provided by specialist healthcare professionals.

SOCOTEC's commitment to corporate social responsibility is reinforced through the partnership with Mesothelioma UK, and demonstrates how critical it is to make a meaningful impact in supporting those impacted by occupational health risks within their industries.
