Royal Visit: The Duke & Duchess Of Cambridge To Visit Leicester City

Leicester City Football Club will be honoured to host The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge on Wednesday 28 November, as King Power Stadium prepares for its first royal visit.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge

- The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge to visit Leicester City on 28 November 
- Their Royal Highnesses to pay tribute to victims of the helicopter accident on 27 October 
- The Duke and Duchess to hear about the charities supported by the Club’s late Chairman 

The Duke and Duchess will pay tribute to those tragically killed in the helicopter accident on 27 October – including Leicester City Chairman Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, with whom Their Royal Highnesses were personally acquainted – and recognise the warmth and compassion that the people of Leicester and fans of the Club have shown in reaction to the accident.

Their Royal Highnesses will visit the tribute site near the stadium to pay their respects to those killed in the accident, before being introduced to members of the Club’s management team and playing squad. Their Royal Highnesses will then meet Club staff and volunteers who helped to relocate the thousands of tributes which were left outside the stadium following the accident.

Afterwards, The Duke and Duchess will visit King Power Stadium itself, where they will meet with representatives from local charities that were supported by Khun Vichai. Their Royal Highnesses will hear how his support enabled the charities to improve the lives of people in the wider Leicester community.

Following the stadium visit, The Duke and Duchess will visit the University of Leicester to hear about some of the educational programmes that Leicester City Football Club has helped to support. This includes a £1M donation made by Khun Vichai in May 2018, which will be used to help fund medical research and training at the University through the creation of a Professorship in Child Health.

Leicester City Vice Chairman Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha said: “It is truly an honour for everyone associated with the Club to welcome The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge to King Power Stadium. For Their Royal Highnesses to visit the city to pay their respects personally is a remarkable gesture of compassion to the families of those who lost their lives, to the staff and players of the Club and to the people of the city whose lives were touched by my father.

“Together with our community partners, we intend to showcase some of the best of Leicester – both in the way the city has come together in the face of such tragedy and in the great work we will continue to undertake in my father’s name as part of our commitment to his legacy.”

Whilst they're here, can someone have a quiet word, see if he can't pass a royal decree to swap the Kop and the Family Stand?

I can’t see any details as to the timing of their day here, such as when they will be at the ground.

Are those kind of details released nearer the time because of security issues?

Yeah put up a time table for the fvcking nutters.

I would say it’s genuine as it does state on the story about meeting volunteers

Hope they get a little alone time at the KP ... maybe they'll conceive another Sweet Prince   :thumbup:
