Mark Dobson said it also helped to give a boost to their volunteer veterans.
“There’s a bit of synergy between how farmers and veterans would feel,” Mr Dobson said. Both were impacted by the circumstances, he said.
Prince Harry is a member of Team Rubicon in the United Kingdom. He has worked with them during relief efforts in Nepal. Team Rubicon is also volunteering at the Invictus Games.
