Alongside supporting our military and civilian partners with training this year, we were honoured to be deployed to support Op London Bridge following the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Members provided support throughout the mourning period by assisting with the Accession Council; ensuring the smooth running of the accessibility queue for Her Late Majesty’s Lying in State on behalf of the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport; staffing the Greater London Authorities’ Volunteer Coordination Cell and supporting at Westminster Abbey for Her Late Majesty’s funeral.
The mission of the Corps is to provide trained volunteers to support civil and military authorities, within the United Kingdom, during any major emergency, incident, or in planning, to protect life and relieve human suffering. All members of the Corps are volunteers. We do not get paid for our work, in fact, we pay an annual subscription to be Corps members.
