Everyone at RCCE is saddened at the death of Her Majesty The Queen and we offer our sympathy, thoughts and best wishes to members of the Royal Family.

We recognise Her Majesty’s lifelong devotion to service and duty together with her dedication in supporting communities, charities, and voluntary organisations across the whole country.

We remain especially grateful for the encouragement Her Majesty provided for rural communities and for the many local organisations working to support these communities. This will remain as an inspiration for us.

James Bettley, Chairman, RCCE – 9th September 2022
