King Charles will record his Christmas message from a former hospital chapel, marking the first time in a decade the speech has been delivered outside of a royal palace or estate.
King Charles will deliver this year’s Christmas message from a former hospital chapel. It’s the first time in a decade that the Christmas speech has been recorded somewhere that is not a royal palace or estate. In a year that the King has been treated for cancer, it’s understood he wanted somewhere that had a healthcare connection, the BBC reports.
The 19th century former chapel building in Pearson Square, in London’s West End, was previously part of Middlesex Hospital but is currently being used for exhibitions and community events for people of any faith or none at all. The building, decorated in the Gothic Revival style with mosaics and Byzantine influences, was kept and restored when the hospital was demolished. It was announced in February that King Charles had been diagnosed with cancer and was beginning a course of treatment. Reports suggest the treatment will continue in the new year. During his visit with the Queen to a community event in Walthamstow Charles smiled and said ‘I’m still alive,’ when asked how he was. The Christmas speech – which dates back to 1932 – was recorded earlier this month and will be broadcast on TV and radio at 3pm on Christmas Day
