Public Notice

MELDRETH PARISH COUNCIL

The Council was very saddened to hear that Her Majesty the Queen had passed away. On behalf of the community of Meldreth we join the millions of people who will pay tribute to this remarkable woman, who has led the nation – us, our parents and our grandparents - through the most challenging of times.

It is difficult to find words that can represent these circumstances. During her long reign the world recovered from a period of appalling conflicts, it embraced social challenges of a magnitude never previously seen and it was exposed to developments in science and technology on a breathtaking scale. Her Majesty’s unwavering humanity during these times has been a constant source of comfort and confidence, not only to her subjects in these islands but to the broader Commonwealth of Nations which she did so much to foster and support and, beyond that, to the wider world where she stood as an enduring beacon of hope and stability.

She combined these duties with a strong sense of family responsibilities. We wish to send our most sincere and loyal condolences to the whole of her family at what will be a very difficult time for all of them. Her family will share these feelings of loss and sadness with the other families in this land in facing bereavement and the loss of a loved one, but we hope they will be helped and their spirits lifted by the knowledge that their grief is shared by many millions worldwide who loved, respected and admired this wonderful woman.

We send our sincere condolences and loyal best wishes to His Majesty the King and to the whole of the Royal Family. God save the King. Meldreth Parish Council
