HASAG - Asbestos Disease Support

Here for you at this difficult time.

HASAG Asbestos Disease Support understands how important it is to continue supporting people and their families affected by asbestos-related diseases during this pandemic. For the safety of our patients, their families and our team, our coffee mornings are cancelled until further notice. However, we are running monthly Zoom coffee mornings and we have a Virtual Coffee Morning group on Facebook. Please get in touch if you are interested. We are not visiting patients in their homes, instead we are doing telephone or zoom appointments. We are still in the office and available Monday-Friday 9am-5:30pm via telephone or email. Alternatively you can get in touch with us via social media Monday-Sunday and we will get back to you as soon as possible. Please know that HASAG’s support is still here for you.

Team HASAG.

Can you help?

Jun 2nd, 2020

Have you been diagnosed with Mesothelioma?

The June Hancock Mesothelioma Research Fund is funding research at the University of Surrey.
Please read below for further information. If you are interested, please contact Dr Fiona McGregor using the email address below.

Study title: Patient and Public involvement and engagement (PPI/E) in mesothelioma research

Invitation to take part in health care research

At the University of Surrey we are about to commence the second phase of a study on the involvement of people with mesothelioma and their carers/family to improve PPI/E with researchers and the mesothelioma community.

We are seeking to recruit ‘Research Champions’ who we will support and train (on-line) to facilitate ‘Meet the Researcher’ events and conferences on mesotheliomas throughout the UK. We will then follow up these events with a short interview.

If you would be interested in becoming a ‘Research Champion’, have had a diagnosis of mesothelioma or are a carer/family member of someone with mesothelioma we would like to hear from you.

Date: Between May and September 2020

Contact details:
Dr. Fiona McGregor (Fiona.mcgregor@surrey.ac.uk)

(A Love2Shop voucher of £25.00 and reasonable expenses will be offered by way of thanks for participating)

Looking forward to hearing from you

The study has been reviewed and received a Favourable Ethical Opinion (FEO) from the University of Surrey Ethics Committee. The study is sponsored by the June Hancock Foundation. Our duty of care and responsibilities towards you are acknowledged and observed

Best wishes,
Dr. Fiona McGregor (Research Fellow, Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Surrey GU2 7YH)
