👑 A Royal Reminiscence at Verulam House 👑
Yesterday at Verulam House, we marked the anniversary of a historic coronation by re‑watching the special ceremony and sharing memories of the Royal Family and royal traditions that so many of us remember watching together over the years.
We enjoyed lively talks, shared stories, and took part in fun quizzes, sparking great conversations and plenty of smiles. It was a wonderful opportunity to reminisce, reflect, and enjoy each other’s company while celebrating a moment of national history. 🇬🇧
Thank you to everyone who joined in and made the day so special 💙
