A privilege to represent Hélène Duchêne at the dinner hosted by the Spirit of Normandy trust and British Normandy Memorial a month away from the commemorations.

An opportunity to express gratitude to incredible veterans such as Gilbert Clarke, serving in the RAF in June 1944. 1/2

13,000 miles now ridden as I attempt to cycle 22,442 miles for British Normandy Memorial . That's around 405,000 calories burnt so far. And one day I might cycle without it raining! justgiving.com/page/paul-harr…

Very sad to share that D Day veteran William 'Bill' Gladden died earlier today. Our volunteer @paulcook said, 'It was one of the biggest privileges in my life to have known Bill. I will miss him dearly – he was one of our greatest heroes and also my friend. Travel well Bill.” 🇬🇧
