Wonderful to speak with @PenFarthing this morning about his charity, Nowzad, and their new shop in North Devon. The work they’re doing is truly remarkable, making a real difference for animals and communities.
The @SercoGroup veteran will certainly be remembered 💗 https://t.co/rJsppYyoU4 #plymouth #plymouthnews #serco #devonport
