The Royal Family has been reflecting on Prince William's time as a pilot with the East Anglian Air Ambulance as part of a national awareness week.

The Duke of Cambridge spent two years flying with the charity.

On leaving he said: "I have loved being part of a team of professional, talented people that save lives every day. My admiration for our country's medical and emergency services community could not be any stronger."

The Royal Family has shared a number of pictures of his time with the service to mark Air Ambulance Week this week, which aims to highlight the lifesaving work the charities do across the country.

The charity shared the tweet, describing Prince William as a "fantastic part of our team".
