King Charles will deliver his Christmas message from a former hospital chapel, marking a departure from traditional royal broadcasts.
King Charles is set to deliver this year's royal Christmas broadcast from a former hospital in a rare break from tradition. The message was recorded earlier this month from inside the Fitzrovia Chapel in central London.The chapel, formerly part of the now demolished Middlesex Hospital, was originally designed for use by staff and patients.
It follows a year of health woes for the royal family, following Kate's cancer fight, as well as the King's ongoing treatment for an as yet undisclosed cancer. The royal's annual address usually recorded from a location within the royal estate. However, this year the King has chosen to break with tradition.In a statement, the Palace noted the living Christmas tree shown in this year’s broadcast will be decorated with sustainable decorations including pinecones, metal bells, twisted glass and glass baubles. In line with the King's love of nature, the sustainable tree was donated to Croydon BME Forum and Macmillan Cancer Support’s 'Can You C Me?' project after recording was concluded.The tree was placed in the Royal Trinity Hospice, Clapham, the oldest hospice in the United Kingdom.
