Her Majesty The Queen
The Queen has ruled for longer than any other Monarch in British history, becoming a much loved and respected
figure across the globe. Her extraordinary reign has seen her travel more widely than any other monarch, undertaking
many historic overseas visits. Known for her sense of duty and her devotion to a life of service, she has been an
important figurehead for the UK and the Commonwealth during times of enormous social change.
Her Majesty continues to carry out a full programme of engagements, from visits to charities and schools, to hosting visiting
Heads of State, to leading the nation in Remembrance and celebratory events - all supported by other members of the Royal
Family.
The Queen sees public and voluntary service as one of the most important elements of her work. The Queen has links - as
Royal Patron or President - with over 600 charities, military associations, professional bodies and public service organisations.
