Statement from NNPCF

We, the National Network of Parent Carer Forums wish to extend our sincere condolences to the Royal family on the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II at this extremely sad time.

Her selfless duty and dedication to the people of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth will never be forgotten.

Her legacy will continue to serve as an example to our own parent carer forums around the country.

We understand that the sad passing of Her Majesty the Queen will affect our families differently.

It may be a tough time, especially for some of our children who might find it difficult to understand.
