A group for sufferers of the gynaecological condition endometriosis has received cash from the Lord Mayor of Bradford’s Appeal.

Coun Dale Smith, has granted £1,000 to the Endometriosis Support Group from his Sunshine Appeal.

Group founder Michelle Middleton was delighted to hear about the grant.

She said: “It gives both recognition and support to the cause, and enables me to continue providing support locally as well as the main UK charity to provide much-needed support and information.”

Michelle set up the support group in Keighley several years ago to offer advice, mutual support, informal discussions and professional speakers.
