Let's Talk
A Charity Cycle Ride
Emma Lord hosted three young men, and a bicycle in the studio. The three young men are members of the Wiltshire Army Cadet Force, and we’d arranged the photoshoot to create some images which they can use to help promote their forthcoming charity cycle ride.
I spoke to one of the organisers after the session.
Let’s start by learning a bit about you
My name’s Thomas and I’m 16. I like to do regular teenager activities, such as gaming and talking to friends. I also enjoy being in the Army Cadet Force. I’m currently taking A levels in IT and cyber security, and hope to have a career in the army.
Tell me more about the Army Cadet Force
I’m a sergeant in the Army Cadet Force. I joined when I was 12 and have made new friends, and done a range of courses through cadets. The courses include radio operation, advanced fieldcraft, and learning different musical instruments. I’ve completed most of the learning available to me as a cadet, which means I’m what’s known as a 4 star cadet.
What inspired you to arrange this cycle ride?
As cadets, we receive a lot of help from previous and current members of the armed forces. We wanted to create an event which would raise money to give something back, particularly to veterans in need of extra support.
Tell me about the charity you’re raising money for.
The charity is called Walking with the Wounded. The charity supports vulnerable armed forces veterans in rehabilitating into society. In particular, they offer support in finding employment and helping people to lead independent lives after service.
