"...make it approachable to young people especially first. Introduce ourselves, say what we do and how us being young people..."

Charley, Richard and Daisy are working out what to put in their film. They're following production of the HSE's Hidden Killer video.

"...If it appeals to us its going to appeal to other people... "

The three young apprentices from Shell have been asked to try and make the dangers of asbestos more appealing to a younger audience.

What do you think of what you've been doing?

"I think there's a lot of interesting facts we've found out that we wouldn't know. Its things like facts that asbestos kills more people than road accidents last year. Its one of those things that is quite unbelievable because its quite well publicised road accidents and things like that but asbestos is kept quite quiet and now that its not used people think that the hazard is not still there but even though its not used anymore it is still present".

Has doing this made you think that it's still a danger for people in certain industries?

"Definitely yeah because it can be something you just come across without even knowing its there sort of thing and you can come across it in your day to day job not realising you've come into contact with it and then years down the line it can affect you severely".

"I think the only issue is that they wanted us to come to put like a young person's perspective on things, on how we were viewing it but a lot of things like especially with the inspector, we found it very difficult to put it across in our way because it's a very serious issue so just speaking to them is mainly all you can do because its one of those things that you can only speak about. Its not as if he can take us and show us asbestos like just first hand cos we're not trained to do that and things like that".

And how can the issue be made more interesting for young people?

"I think it is just to see the dangers of it. That's all you can do. Its a very hard subject to tackle".

"And we've got to decide how we're going to make it sort of available for young people and, we're called Young Champions, to be able to understand what asbestos is".
