It is with deep regret that we hear of the passing of our Queen, someone who embodied the Nation, and all that the United Kingdom stood for.

We will remember the Queen fondly, as a Head of State, but also as someone who cared about people, had a stoic sense of duty, and took the United Kingdom and Commonwealth forward in her 70 years reign.

Our thoughts are with the wider Royal family at this sad time, Her Majesty the Queen will be greatly missed.
