Local Assembly Member Paul Davies has recently attended a Macmillan coffee morning, hosted by Pembrokeshire Intermediate Voluntary Organisations Team (PIVOT) and Haverfordwest Red Cross Team. The coffee morning was a great opportunity to have a coffee and a chat whilst learning about the important work Red Cross is doing across the County.
Mr Davies said, “Macmillan’s World’s Biggest Coffee Morning is a fantastic event that brings communities across Wales together and it was great be a part of that campaign by attending a local coffee morning hosted by the Red Cross team. One in three people will face cancer and it’s important that we all work together to support cancer patients from the very moment that they are diagnosed. Events like this coffee morning are an important way of raising awareness of cancer and the impact that it has on so many lives in Pembrokeshire.”
He added, “The coffee morning was also a great opportunity to learn more about the work of the Red Cross in Pembrokeshire and how they are supporting patients locally. The partners and volunteers at the Red Cross provide a valuable lifeline to many patients struggling with transport to and from hospital. I thoroughly commend the important job that the Red Cross do in Pembrokeshire and I look forward to working with them in the future.”
