Sad news from Cardiff: Andrew Horton, a dedicated electrician who served at the HMRC office for over 20 years, has sadly passed away at 66. His death is linked to mesothelioma, a cancer caused by asbestos exposure, allegedly occurring during his tenure at the Inland Revenue Building in Llanishen.
Andrew’s family is reaching out to the community for support, hoping to connect with anyone who worked with him or has information about conditions at the office back then. Former colleagues, contractors, and anyone familiar with the building’s environment may have vital details to assist in their quest for justice.
The building, now demolished, reportedly contained significant asbestos materials. Andrew’s family has enlisted specialist solicitors to pursue a civil compensation claim, seeking accountability and closure.
