The news was confirmed by Buckingham Palace following a major review of Royal patronages that they carried out.
We are incredibly proud and honoured that The King is our new Patron, having been a great supporter of our work and more widely of uniformed youth organisations.
For The Boys’ Brigade it means that His Majesty becomes the fifth reigning monarch to become our Patron, following Queen Elizabeth II, King George VI, King Edward VIII and King George V.”
Jonathan Eales, Chief Executive
