Veterans Minister Al Carns and three Special Forces veterans have arrived safely back at London's Heathrow airport, after their record-breaking Mount Everest expedition.

Prince Edward was the Reviewing Officer for this year’s Founders Day, telling the Chelsea Pensioners “don’t underestimate how much you’re valued.” Great to be back at such an iconic institution @RHChelsea.
Founders Day! One of the most important events in the Royal Hospital Chelsea's calendar🥳 The annual parade commemorates the hospital's beginnings when it was established by King Charles II in 1681. BFBS Forces News' @sofiecacs was at this year's @RHChelsea celebrations📺👇 https://t.co/Xp0nuD49QN
