Over £500 raised for Maggie's during the Chair's Civic Service

On Sunday, 20 September, Denbighshire County Council's annual Civic Service was held at St Peter’s Church, Ruthin.

Led by the Council’s then Chair, Cllr Bobby Feeley, the service featured contributions from the Reverend Luke Bristowe, the Chair’s Chaplain, Lady Sue Hudson, Mr David Jones OBE, High Sheriff of Clwyd and a performance by Dementia Friendly Ruthin Community Choir.

The congregation raised a fantastic £510.25 for Cllr Feeley’s chosen charity, Maggie’s, which provides cancer support from its North Wales centre at Glan Clwyd Hospital, Bodelwyddan.

Cllr Feeley (pictured below with Emma Shuttleworth from Maggie's) said: “Thank you to everyone who came along, supported Maggie’s and helped make the Civic Service so special. Your generosity and contributions are greatly appreciated.”

Since the service, Cllr Feeley has stepped down from her role as Chair following her appointment to Denbighshire County Council’s Cabinet. The Council’s Vice Chair, Cllr Peter Scott, will now succeed her as Chair.
