A NEW team is leading a Wrexham prostate support group.

At a meeting of the Prostate Cancer Support Group in Wrexham and following the retirement of their leader and co-founder Sandie Jones, the group were unanimous in agreeing they needed to be in a position to be totally self-supportive in the way it operates.

There is no doubting that the success achieved so far is very much down to Sandie’s subtle way of keeping things together and motivating everyone.

It was felt appropriate to be slightly more formal in the way the group operates and communicate. It was acknowledged that special attention needs to be given to their finances and fundraising.

To ensure the group continues to thrive, four officers have been elected.

Malcolm Williams will take on the role of chairman supported by Graham Jones as vice-chair. Frank Maddocks will become treasurer and Phil Jones has been elected as the new secretary with a strong focus in improving PR and communication channels and spearheading fundraising.

The group's next meet on Wednesday, June 5 at 7pm in the upstairs function room at the Nags Head in Mount Street, Wrexham town centre.

New members and guests are warmly welcomed and should you wish to hear more about the group or help with our fundraising or sponsorship call Phil on 07525 824 679.
