The Queen Consort looked elegant in navy as she visited a centre for victims of domestic violence in Battersea in London today.
Camilla, 75, toured the STORM family centre, where she met with volunteers and locals to mark the organisation’s 19th anniversary.
Created in 2005, the centre, which stands for Support, Trust, Opportunity, Rebuilding and Motivation, was founded by local women to help each other recover from difficult situations and abusive relationships.
It has now expanded to helping people of all ages in an effort to build community cohesion.
Queen Consort Camilla, who condemned a ‘pandemic’ of violence against women at play in the UK last December, looked eager to learn more about the centre’s initiatives.
