Duke to read poem penned by a nurse

The Duke of Cambridge is set to read a poem penned by an A&E nurse who was inspired by the traumatic experiences of an Afghanistan veteran suffering from PTSD.

Debbie Lawson has been announced as the winner of a national competition called a Poem to Remember, garnering 49 per cent of the public vote for One For The Team. Launched in February, the competition marks the creation of the Defence and National Rehabilitation Centre and the centenary year of the end of the First World War.
