Queen Camilla has become the first Royal Patron of the Anne Frank Trust UK. The announcement comes ahead of Holocaust Memorial Day 2024 tomorrow.

Queen Camilla, then the Duchess of Cornwall, was the guest of honour at the Anne Frank Trust Annual Lunch in 2022.

During her speech then, she said, “Let us… learn from those who bore witness to the horrors of the Holocaust and all subsequent genocides, and commit ourselves to keeping their stories alive so that each generation will be ready to tackle hatred in any of its terrible forms. And let us carry with us the words and wisdom Anne Frank (a child of only 14 years old) wrote on 7th May 1944: “What is done cannot be undone, but at least one can prevent it from happening again”.
