SHARE YOUR ROYAL STORIES FOR HER MAJESTY’S PLATINUM JUBILEE

-

THE QUEEN this year celebrates seven decades on the throne and we want your help to make our right royal coverage extra special.

Her Majesty becomes the first British monarch to celebrate a platinum jubilee.

Events and initiative­s will take place throughout 2022, culminatin­g in four-day UK bank holiday weekend from June 2 to 5.

During her 70-year reign, the Queen has visited every corner of the nation, millions of loyal subjects there to greet her.

She has hosted garden parties at Buckingham Palace, honoured hundreds of you from our communitie­s who have made a difference to the lives of those around you.

From walkabouts to investitur­es, civil servants to cooks, royal outfitters to radio DJs, artists to headteache­rs, launching ships to opening venues, the Queen has performed thousands of royal duties and met people from all walks of life.

Many of you, our JPIMediawi­de audience, have been privileged to share a few precious moments with Her Majesty.

And we’d like you to share those exciting experience­s with us.

Maybe you were the flower girl who handed the Queen a bouquet as she arrived? Or you played host when she visited your town or city.

It could be you caught her attention during a walkabout, attended a VIP Garden party or was awarded an honour. Or it could have been a chance encounter.

Tell us what the occasion was and the build-up to those special seconds when we commoners came face-to-face with the Queen.

What did she say? What did you say? How special remain your memories?

Your personal recollecti­ons are the focus of our coverage of her “happy and glorious” 70 years reigning over us.
