Military chefs and music bring festive spirit to homeless centre

British Army soldiers have been bringing some Christmas cheer to clients at a homeless centre by cooking up a festive lunch.

Personnel from 3rd Battalion Princess of Wales Royal Regiment brought military catering to homeless people near their Brighton headquarters and were accompanied by the regimental band.

As the video above explains, the battalion does it to engage with a homeless community that is partly made up of veterans.
