Paras drop in for a visit
October 30, 2012
YPU patient Will Bostock enjoyed meeting two members of the Parachute Regiment who came up from Colchester to pay him a special visit. Will is a Cadet Sgt in the Air Cadets and one day hoped to join the Paras himself.
Paras Corporal Dean Moody and Corporal Bob Lewis brought Will some gifts, which included a red beret as worn by the British Parachute Regiment.
Will said: “It was really amazing to meet the Paras and I don’t think I will ever forget it! I enjoyed talking to them about career opportunities as I’m keen to join the military. After spending time on the Young Persons Unit, I’ve been thinking about a job in nursing. Corporal Moody and Corporal Lewis mentioned there are nurses who work alongside the Paras and I’m interested in finding out more about this role.”
“The hospital charity provides those added extras that make a huge difference to the lives of military patients and their families. Thank you for your support”
