The King's Coronation: A Royal Celebration to Remember

As the excitement builds around the forthcoming coronation of King Charles III, the nation is preparing to celebrate this historic event. The coronation will be rooted in longstanding traditions and marks the beginning of a new era in the British monarchy.

The Coronation Day: Majesty and Traditions

On Coronation Day, King Charles III will arrive at Westminster Abbey in the magnificent Diamond Jubilee State Coach, a symbol of the grandeur and majesty of the British monarchy. Accompanied by the Queen Consort, members of the Royal Family, and other dignitaries, the King will be greeted by the Archbishop of Canterbury, who will conduct the coronation ceremony.

The service will be steeped in centuries of tradition, with the Archbishop of Canterbury placing the St. Edward's Crown on the King's head, signifying the beginning of his reign. Millions of people worldwide are expected to watch the coronation, as it will be broadcast live on television and online platforms.

Coronation Weekend: A Nationwide Celebration

The coronation weekend will be marked by various events and activities throughout the country, with a special bank holiday allowing everyone to join in the festivities. Local communities will organise street parties and "coronation big lunches", inviting neighbours to come together and celebrate the historic event. Concerts and other cultural events will take place in various locations, including a spectacular coronation concert at Windsor Castle.

Sandicliffe’s Royal Connections

Being bestowed a Royal Warrant is a distinguished honour in any field, but it holds particular prestige in the automotive industry. Thanks to a longstanding family connection and a shared passion for show jumping since the late 1960s, Sandicliffe was honoured by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II with a Royal Warrant in 1974.

The Royal Warrant was awarded by the Queen herself, recognising Sandicliffe for the supply and upkeep of several horse-boxes and other commercial vehicles. This notable recognition continues to be upheld to this day, further establishing Sandicliffe's esteemed reputation in the industry.

Sandicliffe also has another special connection to the monarch, he was also born in 1948 meaning we both turn 75 this year!
