Marine Industry News – Queen Elizabeth II funeral

Following the announcement of the state funeral of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Marine Industry News (MIN) will not be distributed on Monday 19 September.

MIN will return to readers’ inboxes and online on 20 September. 

Figures from across the marine industry have been paying tribute to Britain’s longest-reigning monarch, following her death last week.

Her Majesty The Queen has been the Patron of the RNLI for 60 years and with her support the charity has gone from strength to strength. She recently visited the boathouse in St Ives and was greeted by hundred of locals who lined the seafront in glorious sunshine.

The state funeral of Queen Elizabeth II will be held at Westminster Abbey at 11am on 19 September.
