Coronation Round-up

Autumn 2023

Coronation Procession

BB members from 1st Billericay, 1st Enfield, 3rd Enfield and 35th Liverpool attended the Coronation Procession, watching from a special viewing area for uniformed youth organisations on The Mall. They then saw the Royal Family’s balcony appearance and the flypast from right outside the palace gates.

I loved being able to go and watch the procession, it was a memorable occasion and really exciting to see the King and Queen in person along with everything else that went on. I had the best day!”

Max, a young person who was part of the group
