On today’s show I spoke to Tony Lewis about his son Conrad who was lost in the War in Afghanistan, and the 353 charitable trust which was set up in Conrad’s name and supports service personnel and their families.

with Conrad’s parents, Tony and Sandy Lewis

We also talked about Nowzad, charity founded in 2007 by Sgt Pen Farthing which aims to reunite soldiers with their battle buddies and also provide vital animal welfare to Afghanistan.
