“She didn’t rush through, she was going to give people the time she felt that she and they needed, and that was just wonderful.”The Queen met the nurses, medical staff and patients in the Royal London Hospital’s Healing Suite, a room decorated with oversized inflatable toys and games, which is used as a space for patients and their families to play and unwind.
Camilla also spoke to the family’s specialist paediatric nurse, Charlotte Duhig, who has cared for the family since December 2023. Camilla was joined on her visit by The One Show co-host Alex Jones, a supporter of the charity, who said: “I was delighted to be invited to meet some of the Roald Dahl Nurses today, and to find out more about the amazing work they do caring for these children with very complex conditions. International Nurses Day is the perfect time to thank them and celebrate their work.”
Louise Griew, chief executive of the charity, confirmed it had been kept on by the Queen in the recent royal patronages review and said she was “delighted”.
