Michael Sheen joins Healing The Wounds


Acclaimed Hollywood star Michael Sheen has given his support to the Healing The Wounds charity which helps treat sufferers of PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder).
The actor has agreed to become a patron of the charity.
“It’s a wonderful gesture,” said Healing The Wounds charity secretary Carol Richards.
“We met Michael the other day and he was very interested in the work of the charity.
“He was delighted to accept our invitation to become one of our patrons and we are sure that he will help us put the charity firmly on the map in Wales.”
Sheen is currently working on a production of the Passion Play in his hometown of Port Talbot over Easter.
He is famous the world over for his film roles, which include playing Tony Blair, David Frost and Brian Clough.
Carol Richards added: “Michael Sheen is a big box office star and a person who obviously cares very passionately about his home community in Wales. We are all looking forward to working with him in Healing The Wounds.
The Healing The Wounds charity was set up in January 2010 to help provide PTSD treatment for members of the armed forces and veterans. It aims to set up a Welsh base for the treatment of PTSD. It is already arranging treatment courses and building a team of counsellors who can treat PTSD.
