Her Majesty The Queen 1926-2022

The Borough of Great Yarmouth joins with the nation in mourning for Her Majesty The Queen, our beloved monarch and dedicated public servant.

The Mayor of Great Yarmouth, Councillor Graham Plant said: "On behalf of the whole Borough I express our deep sorrow at the passing of our beloved Queen. We pay tribute to her decades of unswerving service.

"As Britain's longest-reigning monarch, she unified the nation and provided a sense of tradition, stability, and national pride during more than 70 years of significant and sometimes challenging change.

"Like the rest of our Royal Family, she loved Norfolk - and Norfolk loved and respected her in return. Her visit to Great Yarmouth in 1985 was a great honour and it is fondly remembered by many residents, and we have enthusiastically celebrated each of her Jubilees.

"Today, Great Yarmouth and the rest of Norfolk are in mourning. Our Queen has been a constant part of our lives and touched our hearts with her warmth and dedication. She is a huge loss to the nation."
