Thirty teenage students from The Military Preparation College in Cardiff are to attend the funeral of a former Welsh Guardsman tomorrow following a social media appeal for mourners.
St Tathan's church in the Vale of Glamorgan had been unable to trace 85-year-old Harold Morgan's relatives.
As soon as we saw this appeal on Facebook and Twitter, we knew our Cardiff students would want to be there to pay their respects to a former soldier from our community.
This week has all been about remembering those who gave their lives for their country, so we were determined to support the church’s appeal and have the opportunity to give thanks for the life and service of Mr Morgan.
