Michelle Mitchell: His Majesty is Cancer Research UK’s new Patron
Michelle Mitchell shared a post on LinkedIn:
“It was wonderful to meet His Majesty The King and Her Majesty The Queen at University College Hospital yesterday. His Majesty’s decision to be open about his cancer diagnosis has had a profoundly positive impact on public awareness of cancer and the importance of early diagnosis, and the visit was a great boost for the patients and staff in attendance. .
We were also delighted to confirm His Majesty as Cancer Research UK (CRUK)’s new Patron, continuing the wonderful legacy of HRH Queen Elizabeth II.”
