King Charles III speaks during a presentation of loyal addresses by the privileged bodies, at a ceremony at Buckingham Palace in London. This long-held tradition dates back as far as the seventeenth century and takes place to mark significant royal occasions. The Privileged Bodies are culturally significant organisations and institutions that reflect the UK's diverse society, drawn from the education sector, as well as incorporating science, arts, and religious institutions. Traditionally, the Privileged Bodies are given the opportunity to present loyal addresses to the monarch, representing the key role they play in British society.
