A former royalty protection officer who was told he had terminal cancer has been declared free of the disease.

Allan Peters, from Sturminster Newton in Dorset, had started arranging his own funeral following a stage 4b diagnosis of lymphoma.

But two years after receiving a “revolutionary” therapy at University Hospital Southampton, Mr Peters is in long-term remission

He was diagnosed with with stage 4b diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, a cancer of the lymph glands, in 2022.

It was advanced, having spread to form lesions on his bones, and he was told there was no cure.

“It shows you the kind of thoughtful and caring man our King is, to have taken the time to write to me,” he said.

Following the news that King Charles also had cancer, Mr Peters wrote back to him, which Buckingham Palace acknowledged
