The Duchess of Gloucester is set to return to Bermuda for her fourth official trip next month as part of celebrations for the 60th anniversary of the Royal Bermuda Regiment.

A spokeswoman for Government House said the Duchess, who has served as the Colonel-in-Chief of the Royal Bermuda Regiment since 2006, is scheduled to take part on a Presentation of Colours parade in Dockyard on October 18.

“Further details of the visit between October 16 and 20 will be announced in due course, but her stay will include a visit to Masterworks, as HRH is their patron,” the spokeswoman added.

The Duchess also took part in the Royal Bermuda Regiment’s 50th-anniversary ceremonies in 2015.

She returned to the island the following November for Remembrance Day, where she took part in a ceremony recognising the 100th anniversary of the active involvement of Bermuda’s two volunteer forces, the Bermuda Militia Artillery and the Bermuda Volunteer Rifle Corps, in one of the bloodiest battles in history.

The two forces left the island in 1916 to join Allied forces from around the world in the ferocious Battle of the Somme during the First World War.
