"Being in Red Cross was special, the atmosphere the house gives brings the guys together, creating a tight knit group. That sort of camaraderie that has come from being in such a house has given me friends for life."

"Red Cross will always be a fond memory from my time at Hurst, from endless laughs with friends and house teachers to gritty and exciting house matches. One creates great friendships with the people they live with in Red Cross and these have carried on through to the later chapters of my life. Red Cross was an unforgettable experience and still to this day we laugh about the times we had in this great house."
