Thank you to everyone who donated to our little group. We are all very humbled by your generous donations.
We are able to enjoy a trip to the Royal Welsh Military Museum in Brecon and have plenty left to arrange more trips in the future.
We will also put the money towards a Christmas Carvery where all the guys can sit together and have a cooked meal.
If you have or are still serving in the armed forces, please come along and join us. We meet every 2 weeks, Friday 10th October being the next one, 3-5pm. We have tea, coffee, biscuits, bacon rolls, and sit, chat, and have support.

πŸ“ŒFree liver checks and advice near you!

Cwm Taf Morgannwg UHB's Hepatology team is running free liver health advice and testing at events across our communities next week.

Hepatology Advanced Nurse Practitioners will be offering fibroscans - a quick, painless, non-invasive scan that assesses the liver for any inflammation or scarring and looks at how much fat is in the liver. Results are provided at the time, and if further follow up is required, an appointment will be provided.

Free confidential testing for Hepatitis B & C will also be available.

Events will take place at the following venues:

Monday 13th October 2025. 10.00 am – 6.00 pm. Halo, Merthyr Tydfil Leisure Centre, Merthyr Tydfil, CF48 1UT

Tuesday 14th October 2025. 9.30am - 5.30 pm. Aberdare Library, Green St/High St, Aberdare, CF44 7AG

Wednesday 15th October 2025. 10.00 am – 6.00 pm. Halo, Bridgend Life Centre, Angel Street, Bridgend, CF31 4AH

Thursday 16th October 2025. 10.00 am – 6.00 pm. Tonyrefail Leisure Centre, Waunrhydd Rd, Tonyrefail, CF39 8EW

Friday 17th October 2025. 9.00 am – 5.00 pm. Rhondda Sports Centre, Ystrad, CF41 7SY.

This is a walk-in event - no booking required.

Liver disease is the third biggest killer in the UK, with many diseases that can affect the liver leading to chronic liver disease, cirrhosis, liver failure and potentially liver cancer.

Obesity, alcohol misuse and blood borne viruses are some of the contributing factors to the development of liver disease in Wales. Hepatitis B & C are blood borne viruses that spread from person to person by contact with infected blood and/or bodily fluids. Many people show no symptoms and therefore are unaware of their infection. If left untreated these viruses can lead to chronic liver disease.

Obesity increases the risk of developing fatty liver disease. Of the 25% of the UK population categorised as obese, most will have fatty liver disease and many will have scarring and inflammation that leads to cirrhosis.

Drinking alcohol within the guidelines and taking regular breaks from alcohol will help your liver stay healthy.
