How Llandaff is preparing to become the first place in Wales the new King will visit

In a matter of days Charles III will make his first visit to Wales as King, travelling to Cardiff for a service to remember Elizabeth II as well as visiting the Senedd and Cardiff Castle. Workers have been out in force in the Llandaff area of the city since last week preparing the area for the day.

Llandaff Cathedral will be the King and Queen Consort's first port of call on their visit to attend a remembrance service. The day after the Queen's death a notice was put outside the cathedral announcing that it had closed until further notice in order to prepare for the service. Leave your tribute to the Queen here

Prayers and a time for reflection will be held in the cathedral in the service on Friday, September 16, for the King and Queen Consort alongside some of Wales' most senior clergy. The Royal couple will then visit the Senedd to receive a motion of condolence. Preparations are already being made for the visit with council workers out in force in the Llandaff area re-surfacing roads, weeding, and cleaning.
