Ed returned to Christ College last year and delivered a presentation in the chapel to current pupils about his role as a winchman with the RAF Search & Rescue team stationed at RAF Valley on Anglesey.

Ed is a such a real-life action hero, helping to rescue people from some of the UK’s most treacherous mountains in all sorts of weathers, that in May he was the inspiration for a new Action Man-style figure. Ed said that this rates as one of the best experiences of his career!
