Everton in the Community Executive Director Phil Duffy was recently invited onboard the aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales for a special VIP visit to discuss ways in which the Club’s official charity could collaborate with the Royal Navy.
Senior officers from the Royal Navy visited EitC last month, along with the High Sheriff, to find out more about the charity' work and see first-hand the life-changing impact it has on the city of Liverpool.
EitC Executive Director Phil was then invited by the delegation to visit the aircraft carrier for an exclusive tour led by Captain Ian Groom MBE, the first Captain appointed to HMS Prince of Wales, the second of the UK’s new Queen Elizabeth Class aircraft carriers.
