Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II

September 8, 2022

British Scouting Overseas extends its deepest condolences on the death of our patron, monarch and sovereign - Queen Elizabeth II. As we remember Her Majesty, we give thanks that she has been Patron of The Scout Association since she came to the throne 70 years ago. We also recall with gratitude the support she has extended to Scouting throughout her long reign.

 

Most especially we remember her strong commitment to duty and service to the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth.

 

Our sympathy and prayers are extended to the entire Royal family. The loss of such a beloved mother, grandmother and great-grandmother will be deeply felt.


For further information for our Volunteers, please refer to Guidance | Scouts.
