    Story

    A 100-year-old Yorkshire war veteran who fled Japanese soldiers after being taken prisoner in Singapore during the Second World War, has spoken of his shock and upset after his home was burgled and his safe containing nearly £4,000 was stolen while he was in hospital for a skin cancer operation.

    Former RAF pilot Len Parry, of Skipton, was admitted to Bradford Royal Infirmary on February 4, to have a melanoma removed from his head, but had to stay overnight following a fall, and this is when police believe the opportunist thieves struck.

      Hello everyone, I would just like to say a huge thank you to every single person who has so kindly donated. I delivered the news to Mr Parry today and he is absolutely astounded but wanted me to tell you all that his faith has been restored in society. Thank you again. You are all amazing. Lucy x
