Everyone involved in Hope Support Services, a charity which supports young people and is based in Ross-on-Wye, are disappointed that the planned visit of His Royal Highness The Earl of Wessex has been postponed.

Prince Edward had been intending to visit Hope to learn more about the work they do supporting young people who have a close family member facing a life limiting or life changing illness. They were also hoping to share their exciting plans for the future.

CEO Michael Sharp told the Ross Gazette: "Unfortunately the visit has been postponed but we are looking ahead to 2020 which will be the 10th anniversary of Hope."
