For the Coronation of King Charles III, we wanted to give local families in Norfolk who are supported by Alive UK a coronation treat and enable them to celebrate this historic event.

We collaborated with Alive UK, a local charity which aims to give emergency support to people in crisis in Norfolk, and donated 40 hampers filled with delicious British treats such as biscuits, scones, jam, tea and cake.

Coronation decorations were also donated to decorate Alive Church in time for their community café celebrations on Friday 5th May.

A massive thank you to our wonderful retailers who supported this appeal.

Alive UK, supported by Alive Church, is a registered charity. To find out more visit www.alive.charity

There’s still time to enjoy our coronation celebrations at Chantry Place – we have returned to Chantry Palace as part of our coronation celebrations and, until Monday 8th May 2023, visitors can walk down the red carpet to sit on our throne for a royal photo! We also have a display of brilliant crowns that have been decorated by students from five local schools. These line the walkway between H&M and Phase Eight, Hobbs and Whistles on the upper ground floor.
