King Charles and Queen Camilla faced further anti-monarchy protests at the first Royal Maundy service of the monarch's reign on Thursday.
The royal couple were at York Minster the Royal Maundy service, where Charles fulfilled the ancient ritual of distributing Maundy money to elderly people in the community.
During the service, the money is given to thank the recipients for outstanding Christian service and their positive impact on the lives of local people. As part of the service, Charles presented each person with a red purse, containing two commemorative coins, and a white purse holding a set of specially-minted silver coins equivalent in value to his age.
