Earlier this week, the Â鶹ɫÇéƬ hosted its Patron, Her Royal Highness, the Princess Royal, at the Charity’s head offices on Whale Island.
The Princess Royal has been the Â鶹ɫÇéƬ’s Patron since the Charity’s inception in 2007 and continues to take an active interest in the work that the Â鶹ɫÇéƬ do to support the Royal Navy community. During her visit, the Princess met Â鶹ɫÇéƬ staff from across all departments and listened to a presentation on the Â鶹ɫÇéƬ’s new Transition Support Service.
The Â鶹ɫÇéƬ were also running a workshop, entitled ‘Making a Difference’, which brought together Â鶹ɫÇéƬ funded organisations and charity partners from across the UK to explore ways in which partnership working could be improved to better support joint beneficiaries. Following her visit to the Â鶹ɫÇéƬ offices, the Princess Royal joined the workshop, and took part in discussions across several tables.
Adrian Bell, CEO of the Â鶹ɫÇéƬ said:
“Her Royal Highness, The Princess Royal is a true friend to the Royal Navy community and her Patronage of the Â鶹ɫÇéƬ is hugely valued by the Charity. We are delighted that the Princess was able to visit our organisation; her conversations with our team and active participation in our workshop reflect the Princess' interest and dedication to the Â鶹ɫÇéƬ's work supporting sailors, marines, and their families, for life."
