|October 28, 2025
A MAN who worked at an HMRC office in Wales died after allegedly being exposed to asbestos while working in the offices for more than two decades.
-
Andrew Horton, pictured, died aged 66 from mesothelioma - a cancer linked to asbestos exposure.
It is alleged the asbestos exposure occurred while Mr Horton was working as a tradesperson at the Inland Revenue Building in Llanishen, Cardiff.
His family is appealing for information from anyone who worked at the former Inland Revenue Building.
They are looking to trace former colleagues, contractors, or others who may have knowledge of working conditions, maintenance activity or potential asbestos exposure at the site during Mr Horton's employment.
