Thank you card from King Charles III

King Charles III sent a thank you card following a letter of condolence from the Town Mayor on behalf of the Council and residents of Bollington.

The card reads:

It was so very kind of you to send me such a wonderfully generous message following the death of my beloved mother. Your most thoughtful words are enormously comforting, and I cannot tell you how deeply they are appreciated at this time of immense sorrow.
