Prince Charles carried out his first public engagement since the death of his father by visiting the Welsh Guards at Combermere Barracks today.
The 72-year-old, who is Colonel of the Regiment, took the opportunity to hear first-hand about the group’s activities throughout the coronavirus pandemic.
The Welsh Guardsmen were among the first to roll out COVID-19 testing in the UK and combined with the Royal Anglian Regiment and the Grenadier Guards to set up the first mobile testing units back in March 2020.
Three months later the regiment performed a birthday tribute for the Queen at Windsor Castle incorporating innovative drill moves.
