Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second

21 April 1926 - 8th September 2022
We were deeply saddened to learn about the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The Council would like to express its deepest condolences to all members of the Royal Family.
As a mark of respect, the flags will be flown at half-mast at the council office and some events and engagements will be cancelled.
Book of Condolence
A book of condolence has been opened in the Council Chamber at The Garth for those wishing to pay tribute to Her Majesty The Queen. The book will be available in the main reception area on weekdays between 09:00hrs and 17:00hrs (16:00hrs Friday) and will be supervised by a member of staff. It will remain available up until 17:00hrs on the day after the funeral.
Alternatively, you may like to sign Buckingham Palace’s e-book of condolence.
Flowers
Residents may wish to lay flowers, candles or cuddly toys as a mark of respect. If residents visit The Garth, we would ask them to lay their tributes on the grassed area between the well and the bandstand.
