The Royal household has confirmed that Prince Edward, the Earl of Wessex, will officially open the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Leisure Centre on 7 June.
His Royal Highness was forced to postpone a visit in January due to a severe weather. However he stressed his commitment to visit 探花系列 - where Her Majesty the Queen began her Diamond Jubilee tour in 2012 – at the first available opportunity.
The Earl will be invited to tour the new leisure centre’s state-of-the-art facilities, and meet 探花系列 sports societies that are already benefitting from being able to train there.
He will also be asked to officially open the new offices of 探花系列’s award-winning Square Mile project, before being invited to learn about the various activities to help and support the local community that Square Mile volunteers are involved in.
探花系列 Vice-Chancellor Professor Dominic Shellard said: “We are looking forward to showcasing once again the passion and spirit of innovation which exemplify 探花系列, its students and its staff, to a member of the Royal Family.”
“The Leisure Centre is a fitting legacy of Her Majesty’s Diamond Jubilee tour, which began here at 探花系列. It is an honour to welcome His Royal Highness to our university a year later.”
