King Charles and UK royals to relinquish dozens of patronages

King Charles and other senior British royals are relinquishing patronages of almost 200 charities and organisations after a review of their associations with more than 1,000 groups. The review was launched following the death of Queen Elizabeth to examine all the charities and bodies she, Charles, and Queen Camilla were connected to. Elizabeth was patron of 492 organisations, while Charles was affiliated with 441 and Camilla 100. Over 830 organizations have been retained by the king and queen or passed to other members of the royal family. Organizations can apply to have a royal patron who can provide publicity for their work. The Royal British Legion, the Dogs Trust, the Jockey Club, and the Wildlife Trusts are among those that will retain their royal connection. His Majesty has been praised for his leadership in sustainability and nature conservation. Conclusions of the review will be shared among relevant organizations this week, marking the first anniversary of Charles and Camilla’s coronation.
