Message to His Majesty King Charles III

Letter sent to the King to wish him a speedy recovery as he begins treatment for cancer.
Yesterday, Wednesday 7 February 2024, Councillor Darshan Sunger Chairman of Epping Forest District Council sent a letter on behalf of the district to His Majesty King Charles III after the announcement of the King’s illness.

Letter to the King

Dear Sir,

On behalf of councillors and residents of Epping Forest district, I would like to send our best wishes to you.

We were all saddened by the news of your cancer diagnosis and wish you well as you begin your treatment.

Talking about cancer is not always easy. I hope your openness will encourage others to talk more honestly about the disease and seek help should they need it.

I hope you can take some comfort in knowing you not only have the support from your family during this difficult time, but also from the United Kingdom and across the world.

We all wish you a speedy recovery.

Councillor Darshan Sunger

Chairman of Council
