I raised a call with capita and they investigated and decided that their
installation did not cause the problem.
Back to square 1.

Hi - I've just run PrepareScema and PrepareAd. They appeared to run
successfully and showed the progress dots and success messages. However, it
did not cure the problem!!
I still can't create distribution groups.

Any clues after enabling the diagnostic logging as James suggested?

I finally solved the problem by running the following in Exchange powershell
window:
E:
cd \setup\data
dir schema* | foreach {ldifde -i -f $_.name -c "<SchemaContainerDN>"
"CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=falmouth,DC=local" -v }

E: is the DVD drive containing the Exchange installation package
Change The CN and DC to your own.
This uses the ldifde utility to reinstall all the AD schema for exchange,
correcting errors.
NOTE - this is a low level fix not recommended by MS unless all else fails.

Thanks to all who helped
Gerry
