Councils, courts, schools, police forces and fire and rescue services will be among the UK institutions across that will be offered a new official portrait photograph
An £8 million government-funded scheme is offering public authorities the chance to claim a free portrait of the King.
The prized official portrait has yet to be released by the Royal Household. Organisations will be able to request one free framed portrait. Chief Secretary to the Treasury John Glen said: "This scheme will allow thousands of public institutions across the UK to mark this defining moment in our nation's history with pride. The coronation of His Majesty the King is an opportunity for the whole country to unite, and these new portraits continue a very British tradition to celebrate this momentous occasion."
