Much of what we now know about the Sellafield reprocessing plant in the North West of England is thanks to the two-person team CORE. Behind the acronym for Cumbrian’s Opposed to a Radioactive Environment are Martin Forwood and Janine Allis-Smith. Since the mid-eighties, the couple have been uncovering and clearing up. Their son, like many of the region’s children, was diagnosed with leukaemia.
