Queen Consort Camilla cancels today's Newmarket visit
She was going to visit the British Racing School
The Queen Consort has pulled out of engagements in Newmarket after the weather disrupted her travel plans, Buckingham Palace said.
A Palace spokesman said: “Her Majesty’s engagements at Newmarket later today have had to be postponed due to the weather impacting on transport arrangements.
“Her Majesty is of course very sorry not to be able to attend and will hope to find another date to visit in due course.”
Camilla was due to visit the British Racing School to mark its 40th anniversary and later unveil a painting at the British Sporting Art Trust in the Suffolk market town on Thursday.
The decision to postpone was taken on Thursday morning when the weather was reviewed and attempts to find alternative arrangements were not successful.
Camilla was in London on Wednesday, hosting a reception to mark International Women’s Day as president of the Women of the World Festival.
