Cancer group very grateful for backing

SIR, — Macmillan Cancer Support Group held a collection day in Ballynahinch on Saturday, April 8, 2017, and raised £647.66. We would like to thank everyone who donated for their generosity.

All money raised goes towards improving the lives of people affected by cancer — by providing practical, medical, emotional and financial support. 

Working alongside people affected by cancer, Macmillan works to improve cancer care. Nearly one in two of us will be diagnosed with cancer and currently there are 70,000 people in Northern Ireland living with cancer.

If you require further information, please contact Joanne Young, Fundraising Manager, on 07779 289179. If you are affected by cancer Macmillan can help.  For more information visit www.macmillan.org.uk or call the Macmillan Support Line 0808 808 0000.

Yours etc,

MARY MAGEE,

Chairwoman Downpatrick Macmillan 

Cancer Support Fundraising Committee.
