Britain’s Prince Harry send out his first tweet on Thursday, sending a message on Twitter supporting the upcoming Paralympic-style games for injured and sick servicemen and women. He was attending a press event at the top of London’s BT Tower.

Hope everyone will get behind #invictusgames. Great opportunity to support and thank the men and women who have given so much. Harry

The tweet was followed by a Twitter Q&A with athletes hoping to take part in the games. Inspired by the Warrior Games in the US,  Invictus London will take place from 10-14 September at London’s Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, with more than 300 wounded, injured and sick Servicemen taking part.
