Statement from Working Families on the death of Her Majesty The Queen

Published: 8 Sep 2022

We are deeply saddened by the news of the death of Her Majesty The Queen. Our thoughts are with her family and loved ones at this difficult time. 

The Queen once said that family is the core of a thriving community. As a charity with families at its heart, we remember The Queen as a mother, a grandmother, and a great-grandmother who drew strength from her own family and recognised the vital importance of families in UK society.
