Campaigns

Prevention - Redress - Reform - Support
WORK WITH US

  • APIL has a clear campaign agenda for injured people which is based on the principles of: preventing needless injury
  • obtaining proper redress when things do go wrong
  • campaigning for law reform to protect injured people
  • providing support when you most need it, through our scheme of accredited lawyers

At APIL we take our campaigns to the very top. We make sure the issues which affect you are heard by those who can help us to fight for changes to benefit injured people. Our voice is recognised within Government, by the media and MPs, and by other organisations with aims similar to ours. We actively tell your stories to those we believe can make a difference, and when we get involved in Government consultation papers our responses are based on preserving and enhancing your rights.

On our agenda now:
  • Some people find themselves suffering from appalling, often life-threatening, illnesses because an employer has been negligent by, for example, exposing a worker to a dangerous substance such as asbestos. Many of the most desperately sick people cannot obtain compensation because the employer who caused the illness has gone out of business and the employer’s insurer cannot be traced. APIL is fighting for a special fund to be set up to ensure such vulnerable people can obtain the money they may need to give them some comfort in the last months of their lives.
