Welcome to the autumn edition of the Bulletin. As I write this, there is a sombre atmosphere as the funeral arrangements for Queen Elizabeth II proceed, and I want to take the opportunity to pay my respect to her and to her devotion to duty in this editorial. Although it was not unexpected, I was surprised how deeply her death affected me – I felt keenly what a historic moment the death of the longest-serving monarch in British history, and the second-longest in world history, was.
I write this month’s President’s View in the week following the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth. On behalf of the College, I extend our condolences to the Royal Family. I hope that the expression of admiration and love felt for the Queen worldwide has been of some comfort to them. Her Royal Highness the Princess Royal has long been a dedicated and supportive patron of the Royal College of Anaesthetists, and our thoughts are with her at this time of personal sadness, with which many of us can empathise.
