Royal Patron

Buckingham Palace has announced that His Majesty The King is delighted to retain the patronage of The Police Remembrance Trust.

The Police Remembrance Trus is honoured to receive the patronage of The King, who as The Prince of Wales was a committed and involved patron to National Police Memorial Day since 2006.

The news follows a recent review of Royal patronages conducted by the Royal Household, following His Majesty The King’s Accession.

Chair of Trustees, David Wilbraham MBE said: “We feel very honoured that His Majesty The King has retained the patronage of The Police Remembrance Trust.

“Police officers and staff across the UK take their commitment as ‘servants of the Crown’ very seriously as day by day they serve all communities and maintain ‘The King’s Peace’.

“We have been delighted to welcome His Royal Highness to National Police Memorial Day on many occasions as we not only recognise those who have died on duty across policing history and ensure they are never forgotten but also pledge to those serving today that should the worst happen to them they also will be forever remembered.

“We offer our grateful thanks and congratulations to Their Majesties on the anniversary of the coronation and look forward to continuing our valued relationship.”
