“I declare before you all that my whole life whether it be long or short shall be devoted to your service.”
On her 21st birthday in 1947, Queen Elizabeth II pledged to devote her life to the service of her people. She remained true to her word – undertaking official duties up until her final days.
Tomorrow would have been her 100th birthday. Ahead of events to mark the anniversary, we look back on Her late Majesty’s life and work.

Today we remember Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, who was born one hundred years ago, #onthisday in 1926.
As a royal church, Westminster Abbey had a special relationship with the Queen. Over the course of her life, she came here often for state occasions and national services, and some of the most important moments of her life took place here.

This is so sad. One of my favourite actors. ‘Best In Show’ and ‘Schitt’s Creek’ both classics. I had the honour of having Catherine and her lovely husband stay at @AlthorpHouse 3 years ago. She was utterly delightful - and so modest. RIP. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

HRH The Prince of Wales gives a reading from Luke 2 during Royal Carols: Together at Christmas, a special service here in the Abbey earlier this month. You can watch the full service on ITVX.
'In that region there were shepherds living in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. Then an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, 'Do not be afraid; for see — I am bringing you good news of great joy for all the people: to you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign for you: you will find a child wrapped in bands of cloth and lying in a manger.' And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God and saying, 'Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace among those whom he favours!''
