Our statement on Her Majesty The Queen
Sending our deepest sympathy to the Royal Family following the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Our thoughts are with you all at this difficult time.
We recognise the very personal impact this will have upon our Royal Patron, The Princess of Wales, together with The Prince of Wales and their young family. We extend our wishes to King Charles III, the whole Royal Family, and all those in the various Royal Households.
When someone well-known dies, it can be difficult to know how to support children and young people through that loss. We’ve shared some advice to help families and schools support children over the coming days.
