The future king turned down a chance to spar with an 18-year-old, joking: ‘You’re very quick, I’ll be out of breath’.
The Prince of Wales watches Jess Bryden sparring with Paul Rogers during his visit to Swindon-based youth charity Best – Be A Better You
William toured Swindon-based charity Best – Be A Better You, founded by Don Bryden, and learnt about his efforts, along with wife Sarah and daughter Jess, to support the social, emotional and mental health issues of the next generation with sporting activities. Offered a pair of gloves by the teenager, who is due to fight in an amateur match on Saturday, William quipped: “You’re very quick, I’ll be out of breath.”
Now a part-time boxing mentor with the charity, Ms Bryden described the effect of the royal visit: “This is more for the kids to see he’s there to support them. This is good for Best but more importantly the individuals who are suffering, never in their lives will they experience something like this again.”
