• Civic Centre, Committee Room

The Mayor of Bromley, Councillor Hannah Gray said: “Many of us will want to reflect at home or travel to central London to witness the proceedings on the day of the funeral of our late Queen Elizabeth II, but for those who would like to come together more locally, you are very welcome to congregate in Queens Gardens to watch the proceedings on the large screen.
“Last time we were together in Queens Gardens was to celebrate the happy occasion of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
“On Monday, it will be a much more sombre day as we pay our respects to a Sovereign who chose to visit our borough on five occasions over her lifetime and who will be sorely missed.
“The screening in Queen’s Gardens is intended to offer solace and a chance to reflect collectively, for those who wish to do so, during this sad period of public mourning.”
