The Alarm frontman Mike Peters dies aged 66
The Prestatyn-born star had been undergoing treatment at the Christie NHS Foundation Trust in Manchester

The Alarm frontman Mike Peters has sadly died aged 66. The North Wales star, who was forced to cancel a US tour last year after being diagnosed with fast-growing lymphoma, had been undergoing treatment at the Christie NHS Foundation Trust in Manchester.

His death was announced by a spokeswoman for the charity he co-founded with his wife. Peters, who supported U2 and Status Quo on tour and played with Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen, was first diagnosed with the blood cancer chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) more than 30 years ago, aged 36.

Mike had been in very bad health for some time but continued to do an amazing amount of work for charity.   He used to walk up Snowdon doing gigs along the way and a couple of my walking mates used to go up there with him
My thoughts are with Jules his wife who is also in bad health and for his family
