A LEDBURY-BASED cancer survivor and life coach will be offering a free informal evening to local people with issues including low esteem, depression, relationship problems and addiction.

Carl May says he also works with patients "pre-and post-cancer with the many traumas that a diagnosis can bring".

He said: "I work closely with those related to cancer patients, helping them to understand and deal with their concerns.

"This support also works very well with other major life -changing illnesses. I have now moved to Ledbury and would like to help the people of the town."

The free evening will take place at the Bethesda Physio Clinic, The Homend, on Thursday, January 19, from 7.30pm.
