Inverclyde Chamber of Commerce wishes to express our deep sadness following the death of Her Majesty the Queen and extend our heartfelt condolences to the Royal Family. 

The Queen was the longest-serving British monarch and recently celebrated her Platinum Jubilee with a weekend of celebrations taking place across the country.

The sad news was confirmed after members of the royal family travelled to Balmoral, where the Queen was laying in rest.

A period of mourning is now in place with plans and arrangements for the Queen’s funeral yet to be announced.

Her eldest son, King Charles III will officially be proclaimed King on Saturday, September 10th.

Today, we reflect on the immense service that she gave to the Crown, her people of the United Kingdom and the wider Commonwealth.

Her dedication and devotion to duty were unmatched as was her humility and love of people displayed over the 70 years of her reign.

In those 70 years, she oversaw a golden age of progress, always remaining a steadfast source of comfort and stability in an ever-changing world.

Your Majesty, we thank you and may you rest in glory.
