Formally announced today, on the occasion of Queen Elizabeth’s centenary: the Queen Elizabeth Trust is a new UK-wide charity that works hand in hand with communities to restore and sustain shared spaces that bring people together across generations from all walks of life.
Yvonne Field @ubeleinitiative is one of many community leaders we spoke to about how the Queen Elizabeth Trust can help communities to thrive. We are grateful for the advice and encouragement we received from voices across the UK.
Today The King and Queen were joined by other members of the Royal Family at the British Museum to view a scale model of the new national memorial to commemorate the life of Queen Elizabeth II.
Their Majesties and Their Royal Highnesses met memorial designer Lord Norman Foster as well as the three artists producing work for the site. The model will remain on public display at the British Museum.
The tribute will overlook The Mall in central London, and is inspired by the 1955 portrait of the Queen at age 28 by Italian artist Pietro Annigon.
His Majesty The King, alongside members of the @RoyalFamily attended the Queen Elizabeth Memorial launch at @britishmuseum.
The national memorial, which will be built in St. James's Park, celebrates Queen Elizabeth’s life of service to the UK and the Commonwealth.
The Board of the Queen Elizabeth Trust is seeking to appoint the inaugural Chief Executive to shape the organisation from the outset and steward a programme of significant national importance. More here: https://t.co/Nzc8LlbCWa
After a day of events to mark what would have been Queen Elizabeth II’s 100th birthday, we remember the life of the longest serving Monarch in history.
