The Royal Cornwall Agricultural Association has announced that His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales has accepted the role of Patron.
“The dedication of His Royal Highness towards environmental conservation and innovation, matches the Association’s commitment to provide a platform for agriculture and farming in Cornwall, and help its development,” the association says.
The Royal Cornwall Agricultural Association has a long history of Royal Patronages, including King George VI and Queen Elizabeth II. King Charles III, then HRH The Prince of Wales, took over the patronage in 2002, which he held until his accession to the throne in 2022.
“It is also an honour to receive this patronage in line with His Royal Highness’s position as The Duke of Cornwall, the Association aims to highlight and promote the heritage and culture of the county through local traditions, skills and knowledge, with Cornwall being at the heart of everything we do, as well as our work in providing farming and rural education to schools across the Duchy,” the association continued.
“We extend the warmest of welcomes to His Royal Highness, and heartfelt gratitude towards his patronage of the Royal Cornwall Agricultural Association, and we look forward to welcoming him to the Royal Cornwall Show in the future.”
