HRH Duke of Edinburgh RIP

The Order of Malta in Great Britain unites our prayers with those of people across the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth for the repose of the soul of HRH the Duke of Edinburgh.

In May 2015, His Royal Highness opened the Orders of St John Care Trust (OSJCT) home, Haycroft Care Centre, Devizes, giving great pleasure to the residents and causing a smile all round when he pointed out that he was older than all of them.
