HM King Charles III announced as new Patron of The Boys’ Brigade
Thursday 9th May 2024We are delighted to announce that HM King Charles III has become Patron of The Boys’ Brigade UK & RoI.
The announcement comes a year on from the Coronation and follows a major review of Royal patronages by Buckingham Palace.
Jonathan Eales, Chief Executive of The Boys’ Brigade, commented: “Having already been a great supporter of our work and more widely of uniformed youth organisations, we are incredibly proud and honoured that The King is our new Patron.”
“The announcement confirms His Majesty as the fifth reigning monarch to become our Patron, following Queen Elizabeth II, King George VI, King Edward VIII and King George V.”
“Royal patronage provides publicity and recognition for what we do in communities across the country and the hard work and dedication of our volunteer leaders.”
We are incredibly thankful for The King’s continued support of our work. May we encourage you to remember our new Patron in your prayers.
