The Queen’s Jubilee: Platinum Pomp The work that goes on behind the scenes to mark Jubilee celebrations.

Soldiers, horses and musicians It all starts to come to fruition on the Thursday, as Trooping the Colour marks the Queen’s birthday celebrations. Over 1,400 parading soldiers, 200 horses and 400 musicians will come together in the traditional Parade. This is the first Jubilee celebration in which women will be included in the regiment, so additional preparations have been made to ensure the influx of first-time participants.

RAF fly-past The traditional RAF fly-past completes the parade. The routine will have been practised countless times, though contrary to popular belief, this isn’t just a privilege reserved for the Queen. In the lead-up to the event, local communities have been invited to apply for their own fly-pasts.

Jubilee beacons A fortnight before the Jubilee, 1,500 Platinum Jubilee beacons will have been distributed across the UK. This lighting of beacons first took place in 1897 to mark Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee and are a symbol of unity across towns, borders, countries and continents.

service at St Paul’s Cathedral.

Public safety elements come to the fore here, with tens of thousands of well-wishers lining the streets around the Thames as the Queen and family members attend.

The Derby A day of leisure follows on the Saturday as the Queen visits The Derby at Epsom Downs.

The event itself is over 240 years old and has garnered a different winner every year, and is open only to three-year-old thoroughbred colts and fillies who have qualified for the race in the months preceding it. It remains the race that offers the biggest prize pot in the British racing – over £1.1million.

10,000 charitable tickets In the evening, Elizabeth returns to London for a party at Buckingham Palace. In the months leading up to the event, which features music and drama celebrating some of the most significant cultural

moments from The Queen’s seven-decade, over 10,000 tickets have been made available to charitable organisations. This has been two years in the planning.

Street celebrations Finally, on Sunday, June 5th, communities across the UK are invited play out their own Platinum Jubilee street celebrations. Named The Big Lunch and launched in 2009, communities have been planning for months how they wish to mark the special day, with up over 1,500 applications made.

200 silk scarfs At the same time, the Platinum Jubilee Pageant sees artistic performers, dancers, musicians, military personnel, key workers and volunteers tell the story of the Queen’s 70-year reign.

It includes a ‘River of Hope’ section comprised of 200 silk flags made by primary and secondary school children.

St Paul’s Cathedral On Friday, June 3rd, attention switches to the Thanksgiving

Chosen C h ar i t y

“I know it’s a bit of a cliché when people use the term ‘life changing’, but The Elizabeth Foundation is exactly that” – Parent of a deaf child.

Nine out of ten deaf children are born to hearing parents with no experience of deafness.

Being told your child is deaf can be a worrying time, leaving parents with many questions and few answers.

That’s where The Elizabeth Foundation comes in. With baby, toddler and preschool classes, and monthly support groups, children with any degree of deafness and their families are supported and guided from diagnosis all the way through to starting school.

I felt reassured that we were not alone and that he could still thrive and achieve in life.

The specialist teachers and speech and language therapists at The Elizabeth Foundation encourage children to develop speech, language and listening skills by using all of their senses in a natural, fun, child-centred environment, while offering

knowledge, guidance and emotional support to their families.

“It helped me enormously to chat to other parents, and I felt reassured that we were not alone and that he could still thrive and achieve in life” – Parent of a deaf child.

How can you help?

The Elizabeth Foundation doesn’t receive any government funding, and so to continue its vital work, it relies solely on corporate support, grant-making trusts and the generosity and fundraising efforts of schools, community groups and individuals.

As well as donating by scanning the QR code, you can take part in the many fundraising events coming up this year. From skydives to the Great South Run to abseils and the National Three Peaks Challenge, there is something for every type of adventurer out there! For those who prefer their feet firmly on the ground, there’s the Summer Fayre on Sunday 10th July 11am-1pm featuring stalls, raffles, character meet and greets, live music, acrobats and much more!

For more information, visit: www.elizabeth-foundation.org/help/events/ or give the fundraising team a call on 02392 372735.

THE QUEEN

in her own words Quiet, impeccably mannered, but always addressing with poise and precision, what Queen Elizabeth II says is always worth hearing.

“I declare before you all that my whole life, whether it be long or short, shall be devoted to your service and the service of our great imperial family to which we all belong.”

THE QUEEN AND DIANA The idea that the Queen was in some way unapproving of Diana is one that has permeated the popular press and, it might be said, has left an indelible stain on the reputation of both. Yet many biographers have noted that the relationship between the two was excellent, even after the break-up of Diana’s marriage to Prince Charles.

“No one who knew Diana will ever forget her.

Millions of others who never met her, but felt they knew her, will remember her.

“She was an exceptional and gifted human being. In good times and bad, she never lost her capacity to smile and laugh, nor to inspire others with her warmth and kindness. I admired and respected her - for her energy and commitment to others, and especially for her devotion to her two boys.”

SERVING HER COUNTRY Upon the Queen’s coronation, she declared herself fully at the service of the nation she was serving, as have all Monarchs coming to the throne. While the words are regularly spoken, the intensity with which they were said perhaps should have given some indication that Elizabeth truly was giving herself over to the nation, a fact that has been borne out in the 70 years that have followed.

STRUGGLES Taking strength from all around her, the Queen has never professed to have all the answers.

“I know of no single formula for success. But over the years I have observed that some attributes of leadership are universal and are often about finding ways of encouraging people to combine their efforts, their talents, their insights, their enthusiasm and their inspiration to work together.”

FAMILY Bringing the royals back to a status where people can empathise and share in the joys and pain of the family unit, is something Elizabeth has excelled in.

“Like all best families, we have our share of eccentricities, of impetuous and wayward youngsters and of family disagreements.”

CONTRITION Finally, the Queen has not only had to reference and apologise for events that occurred long before she was born.

“To all those who have suffered as a consequence of our troubled past I extend my sincere thoughts and deep sympathy. With the benefit of historical hindsight we can all see things which we would wish had been done differently or not at all.”
