Michael Sheen stars for PTSD charity


Acclaimed Hollywood star Michael Sheen has carried out his first ‘official duty’ as a patron of the Healing The Wounds charity which helps treat sufferers of PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder).
Michael wowed members of the ladies coffee morning section of the Naval Club at Sandfields, Port Talbot, as he helped present a cheque to Healing The Wounds Charity.
The £1,500 cheque was presented to Kevin Richards, founder and Executive Director of the charity.
Mr Richards said: “We were delighted when Michael Sheen agreed to become a patron of the charity.
“Michael is very interested in the work of the charity and we are sure that he will help us put the charity firmly on the map in Wales.”
Sheen recently completed an epic open-air production of The Passion in his hometown of Port Talbot.
He is famous the world over for his film roles, which include playing Tony Blair, David Frost and Brian Clough.
Mr 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.
“He was a very big hit with the ladies at the Naval Club and it was great that we were both able to extend our personal thanks to the ladies who had worked so hard to raise these funds for Healing The Wounds."
