The Lord-Lieutenant of Bedfordshire has paid a visit to a Bedford school to talk to their school council about her role.
Susan Lousada, who is the representative of HM King Charles in the County, spoke with School Council members at Livingstone Primary School, Bedford on Wednesday (7 December).
The Council heard all about the origins and history of the role, from its beginnings during the reign of Henry VIII and what a Lord-Lieutenant does today.
Students even got an insight into what it was like accompanying King Charles on his visit to Luton this week.
As well as explaining her role she also took part in a Q&A session with the children asking lots of interesting questions.
Headteacher Peter Thornes was delighted to welcome Susan to the school. “It was such an interesting visit for our Council and they loved hearing about the history of her role and what it means for Bedfordshire.”
