As the world mourns the death of Queen Elizabeth II, who passed away on Thursday 8 September at the age of 96, we have found a way to fondly remember the late monarch. Elizabeth II was Queen of the United Kingdom and other Commonwealth realms from 6 February 1952 until her death in 2022. She was queen regnant of 32 sovereign states during her lifetime and 15 at the time of her death. Her reign of 70 years and 214 days is the longest of any British monarch and the longest recorded of any female head of state in history.
Help us remember the Queen by participating in our God Save the Queen 1M 5K 10K 13.1 26.2 virtual race. We will be donating 15% of each registration to CORAM. The Queen supported many charities focused on helping children. In 2018, she visited children’s charity Coram to meet young people and staff and open the new Queen Elizabeth II Centre. Coram was the first place in London to look after abandoned babies and vulnerable children.
