I have been asked to give asbestos awareness training to some of our staff who have to deal with fly tipping. Whilst I can do the talk, have a number of pictures, I don't have an appropriate video (most cover removal etc) or even some samples (double bagged of course). Any ideas anyone?

Just make sure that you are not in-undated with offers of help from people posting asbestos samples to you.(Class 1 carcinogens regardless of type). The Post Office had this banned since 1956's Act I believe.
The local HSE office may help as I have seen displays which they use at exhibitions to test peoples knowledge on possible ACM's. This could be useful for training.

The best asbestos awareness video that I have seen has been published by the CITB.

The HSE also do one but that appears to be mainly focused on the health effects of asbestos.

The two part film entitled "How are you today?" is very good. Available from the HSE.
Is this the one Arran refers to?

Liz - sign yourself up as an Asbestos Partner - see HSE web page and follow the Asbestos campaign pointers - get yourself FREE training material including useful notes, booklets, pictures, and a Video.
