A 101-year-old man who took a trip to the animal rights Camp Beagle camp at Wyton on February 12 has become the new patron.
Ron Green, from Hertfordshire, visited the camp for a second time yesterday (February 21) with the news.
A video of him meeting several individuals at the camp was posted on Camp Beagle’s Facebook page today (February 22).
In the video, Ron said: “To start with, I had no idea what was here, and when I found out I was so disgusted.”
Ron was given a warm welcome to the camp, and those present at the time were very happy with him becoming the new patron.
A spokesperson from Camp Beagle said: “Ron visited us here at Camp Beagle to give us the fantastic news.
“He stood beside us in unity. He’s a wonderful, kind, caring and compassionate man.
“What an inspirational patron and warrior for the beagles.
