Michael Morpurgo reflects on meeting the Duke of Edinburgh when he was 16 and the indirect effect that meeting had in shaping his views later in life.
'He realised', writes Michael, 'that investing in our young people is the most important investment we can make as a society' .
He says the Duke's passion for helping young people will be needed more than ever in the difficult months ahead, as we come out of the pandemic.
