We were delighted to be contacted by a local care home who had a World War 2 veteran turning 100 years old. John served in the Merchant Navy as a Radio Operator and his ship the Ocean Peace was sunk after being bombed. He managed to escape and has some tales to tell!

We presented him with a cake with the Merchant Navy Flag on, a walking stick with the Merchant Navy logo on and Daniel a local veteran who also served in the Merchant Navy gave him a centenary magazine.

What a delightful gentleman, we were all honoured to meet him!
