Family's award after asbestos death

A family have been awarded almost 拢250,000 after their mother died from second-hand exposure to asbestos.

Adrienne Sweeney contracted mesothelioma after coming into contact with dust from her husband's overalls.
William Sweeney, from Paisley, worked at the Babcock & Wilcox boiler-making factory in Renfrew in the 1960s.

Daughter Kate Gibson said the compensation gave her mother "the justice she wanted in life".
