1/6 I've been reflecting on what has been an extraordinary time to be DHM Holy See. State Visits don't grow on trees - many 🇬🇧 diplomats never get to deliver one - let alone one so unique & historic. It was many months in the preparation (shout-out to amazing team @UKinHolySee)

Thanks to all the partners, particularly @USinHolySee and to @UniGregoriana for hosting

Pleased to partner with GCTF embassies for this important event on AI and the Future of Work, with opening remarks from 🇻🇦’s Sr Raffaella Petrini calling us to put human beings & common good at the centre. Speakers travelling from 🇬🇧 including @George_Osborne & Prof Noam Yuchtman

This afternoon in the Sacro Convento of Saint Francis of Assisi, Ambassador @ChrisTrott read a message from His Majesty The King, marking the launch of the Italian edition of Harmony, the book written by His Majesty on environmental stewardship.

On the first anniversary of the death of Pope Francis, we remember his moral leadership, compassion, and commitment to dialogue. His leadership helped strengthen the close and enduring relationship between the 🇬🇧 and the 🇻🇦.

Excited to welcome Cardiff-based Choir @corcaerdydd to Rome. They will be singing at the 12:00 Mass in St Peter’s Basilica on Saturday 18 April, performing a repertoire of Welsh composers. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿contemporary choral heritage at its best. All welcome to attend!

From last night's Prayer Vigil for Peace in the world with @Pontifex, which I attended in St Peter's Basilica

A year ago Their Majesties King Charles and Queen Camilla greeted Pope Francis in a private meeting at the Vatican. A moving occasion that demonstrated great mutual respect.

Proud to support the Women, Faith & Climate Network @WiltonPark initiative. Women of faith play a key role in strengthening collaboration on climate justice and turning commitment into action #climateaction

A very good introductory meeting with Mons. Jozef Barlaš @VaticanIHD together with colleagues Alessandra Piccirilli and Tebaldo Vinciguerra. We discussed shared priorities on climate, tackling human trafficking and the dignity, protection and empowerment of women and girls 🇬🇧🤝🇻🇦

A pleasure to meet Sr Tiziana Merletti, Secretary of the Dicastery for Institutes of Consecrated Life - one of Pope Leo XIV’s first Curial appointments. A rich discussion on safeguarding, canon law and the leadership of women religious 🇬🇧🤝🇻🇦 @uisg_superiors

Always a pleasure working in partnership with @uisg_superiors - especially Sr Maamalifar (pictured), whose climate leadership is so grounded and practical. And a great read from Dr Lorna Gold of @LaudatoSiMvmt on women of faith rising for our common home: laudatosimovement.org/news/radical-k…

Last week, I attended @WiltonPark with the Women, Faith & Climate Network. Women of faith are already leading climate action on the ground - with moral authority, deep community reach and solutions. Proud to support this work through @UKinHolySee. Time to scale what works #WFCN

Avec @UKinHolySee @christrott, nous avons accueilli @JesuitRefugee de Goma à Kinshasa pour une formation du Royaume‑Uni sur des approches centrées sur la santé mentale des survivantes et le rôle des organisations confessionnelles dans la lutte contre la stigmatisation.

The British and Australian Embassies to the Holy See host an event dedicated to bringing women students together to encourage them on their paths as leaders in the Church and in society. vaticannews.va/en/church/news…

It was truly an honour to spend the day with these bright future leaders full of potential and ideas for a better world. Thanks to our partners, @AusAmbHolySee

Using my Palmerston mug for my morning cup of espresso today in honour of the great cat. RIP 🐾

Palmerston brightened up the FCDO corridors when I worked in London. His unannounced office inspections were a a perk of the job. Rest in peace, our dear tuxedo’d pal 🐾

A pleasure to present members of the 🇬🇧All-Party Parliamentary Groups on the Holy See and on Safeguarding in Faith Communities to @Pontifex yesterday following their productive discussions with Vatican dicasteries & other partners. Thanks to Vatican Media for capturing the moment

Delighted to welcome 🇬🇧 delegation of All Party Groups on 🇻🇦and Safeguarding to the Vatican, deepening collaboration on protecting vulnerable groups and promoting best practice in safeguarding. Thank you @TutelaMinorum @iadcpug @uisg_superiors for sharing expertise and insights.
