The family of the late Mr Anthony Greenwood, who sadly died from mesothelioma (a cancer linked to asbestos exposure), is appealing for information from anyone who worked at a number of companies where he worked as a caravan builder/repairer.
Our specialist asbestos solicitors have been instructed by Mr Greenwood’s family to pursue a civil compensation claim following his death in September 2025, aged 81. The team are looking to trace former colleagues or others who may have knowledge of working conditions, or potential asbestos exposure, during Mr Greenwood’s employment from 1958 to 2008.

Mr Greenwood’s work involved building and repairing caravans and commercial trailers at the following companies, including (in chronological order):
- Oldham Caravans, Equitable Street, Oldham
- Mayfair Caravans Ltd, Manchester
- Boden Trailers Ltd, Royton
- Crane Fruehauf Trailers Ltd, Royton
- Lynton Caravan Manufacturing Co Ltd, Gorton
- Glossop Caravans, Brookfield, Glossop
- Lynton Commercial Units, Glossop
Mr Greenwood resided in Oldham before he sadly died to due mesothelioma in September 2025.
Emma Newman, asbestos claims lawyer and Senior Associate, said:
“We are hoping to help Mr Greenwood’s family by locating others who worked at these companies. If you worked with Mr Greenwood at any point, or have knowledge of asbestos use at these companies, we would be very grateful to hear from you. Even small details could prove crucial in understanding how he was exposed and in holding those responsible to account.”
