On behalf of Business West Chambers of Commerce, we express our deepest condolences to the Royal Family on the passing of our Patron Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
As a patron of the Chambers of Commerce, she was a great supporter of business throughout her reign, most recently providing morale and acting as a beacon of stability for firms during the coronavirus pandemic and acknowledging their successes through the Queen’s Awards during her Platinum Jubilee.
The Queen was a frequent visitor to the south-west of England. During her last official visit in late 2021, she met world leaders at the G7 Summit.
In 1998 we were delighted to have the Queen as our Guest of Honour at our Bristol Chamber of Commerce 175th anniversary celebrations held in the Mansion House.
Throughout her seven decades of service, she has provided selfless service to millions and has been a symbol of strength, courage, and grace.
It is with great sadness that we mourn her passing and we honour and celebrate her admirable and unwavering service to society and business.
