A giant has fallen. Martin Forwood was a highly respected campaigner and friend of SRS Watch and will be sorely missed. His tireless work gainst spent fuel reprocessing at the THORP facility Sellafield in the UK resulted in ultimate victory. Martin’s stellar work on sea shipment of spent nuclear fuel and nuclear materials brought much-needed attention to that industry. You will be missed!
