The Prince of Wales has opened a new rehabilitation centre for wounded service

personnel in Surrey, where he spoke about the number of British service

of troops being injured is "astonishing".

Charles said the public does not hear much about the number of people suffering

wounds in the conflict, where his youngest son, Harry, is currently serving his

rooms and a gym for rehabilitation of wounded soldiers and a workshop for
