THE next meeting of the York Haematology Support Group for patients, families, carers and friends dealing with blood cancers will be held on Thursday at 7pm at Huntington Working Men’s Club.

The guest speaker is Professor Eve Roman, Epidemiology and Cancer Statistics Group, University of York.

Newcomers are always welcome; just turn up on the night. There is ample free parking available.

There will not be a meeting in January, so may I take this opportunity to wish all members, old and new, a Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy new year.

Carol Miller, Support group leader, Priors Walk, Acomb, York.
