Please join us for the premiere of the play developed in collaboration with the theatre company Dead Earnest to raise awareness of the risks of asbestos exposure and to highlight the impacts on families living with mesothelioma.

The event is part of the University’s biennial  which celebrates world-class research. We will be joined by a wide range of partners and stakeholders including the charity Mesothelioma UK who fund our research, the Yorkshire and Humberside Asbestos Support Group, health professionals, academics, and people living with mesothelioma. 

The event is free and no tickets are required. If you have any questions, please contact the researcher Sarah Hargreaves (sarah.hargreaves@sheffield.ac.uk).
