THE QUEEN'S PUBLIC FUNCTIONS
The Queen, as inheritor of a continuous tradition going back 11 centuries, is the personal symbol of the State and of national unity, and provides a natural focus for popular loyalty and aspira tions. Royal marriage and funerals are still marked by ancient ceremonial although to a lesser degree than in former days; and the birthday of a Sovereign, formerly the occasion of many royal and public functions, is today officially celebrated early in June by Trooping the Colour2, when the Queen personally reviews the troops drawn up on the Horse Guards Parade1. The Queen's Birthday is also celebrated as Commonwealth Day.
Hundreds of royal visits to various parts of the country for public functions keep the royal family in close touch with new development. These often involve visits lasting more than one day, and usually centre around an event of local importance or some national event such as the Royal Agricultural Show or the opening of a new bridge or dock. There are also royal film, variety and concert performances in aid of charity and visits to schools, universities, hospitals and factories. The Queen visits many im¬portant sports events.
In addition to being head of all 3 armed services, the Queen is Colonel-in-Chief of several regiments and corps in the United Kingdom and other Commonwealth countries.
