Our statement on the passing of HM Queen Elizabeth II

“On behalf of ourselves and Public Health Wales, we express our deep sorrow and sense of real sadness and loss at the news that HM Queen Elizabeth has died.   

“As the longest serving monarch in the history of the United Kingdom, Her Majesty has been a symbol of unity and strength, and has provided stability and constancy for a period of more than seventy years.

“This has been a time of unimaginable change for this country under the 15 prime ministers who have served under her. 

“Our thoughts are with the Royal Family, the people of Wales, the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth as we mourn and remember the life of HM Queen Elizabeth II.”
