About DAST

The Derbyshire Asbestos Support Team (DAST) is a registered charity for the relief of people who have suffered ill-health, injury or become disabled from their work with asbestos.

 

We also help their families with the provision of support, advice and assistance. DAST is also linked with other asbestos support groups throughout the UK and abroad to work together to ensure all those injured are offered the support and assistance as required.

The Derbyshire Asbestos Support Team was established in March 2002 and in June 2007 became a registered charity (No. 1186006).

Although we are called the Derbyshire Asbestos Support Team we offer advice and information to asbestos-related disease victims and their families in Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Northamptonshire, Leicestershire, Burton-on-Trent and Lincolnshire. We will carry out home visits throughout these areas.
