EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken in 1990 at Fowey Docks in Cornwall, we witness a momentous occasion as the Princess Royal graces the scene. Her Royal Highness arrives with grace and elegance, donning a stylish bowler hat that perfectly complements her regal attire. The purpose of her visit is to inaugurate a new building for the Mission to Seafarers charity. This remarkable organization operates in more than 200 ports worldwide, catering to seafarers from all walks of life - irrespective of their rank, nationality or beliefs. The charity's mission is clear: providing practical assistance, emotional support, and spiritual guidance to those who spend their lives navigating treacherous waters. As the Princess Royal steps onto Fowey Docks, she exudes an air of compassion and dedication towards these unsung heroes of the sea. With every ship visit made by dedicated volunteers known as Flying Angels and through their strategically placed seafarers centers called Flying Angel seafarers centres around the world, this charity ensures that no sailor feels alone or forgotten. This powerful image captured by photographer Jonathan Barker serves as a testament to both HRH's commitment to philanthropy and the enduring spirit of Cornish hospitality. It encapsulates a moment when royalty meets humanity on equal footing – where empathy transcends social status
