Queen Camilla leads celebration of nurses


The Royal Family took to social media on Sunday, 12 May to mark International Nurses Day, sharing a visit by Queen Camilla to the Royal London Hospital. 

The Queen visited the Royal London Hospital together with BBC presenter, Alex Jones, to highlight the work that the Roald Dahl Nurses do at the hospital.

Queen Camilla spent time in the colourfully decorated Healing Suite, a space in the hospital for young patients and their families to spend time together. She met with several patients and their family to hear about their experiences.

The Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s Charity works to provide nurses for children with medically complex conditions and so far has hired 150 Roald Dahl Nurses. The organisation is currently working to raise £1,000,000 to hire more nurses. 

On X, along with videos and pictures from Her Majesty’s visit to the hospital, the Royal Family shared their thanks: This International Nurses Day, we thank all our amazing nurses who work tirelessly to provide the best care to people who need it most.
