The Royal family has offered its support to a leading cancer charity in the wake of the King’s diagnosis.
Buckingham Palace is understood to have partnered with Macmillian, giving it the green light to use the King’s own health scare to urge others in his position to reach out for support.
The move comes just two days after it was revealed that the King had cancer and is likely indicative of further such collaborations and partnerships further down the line, The Telegraph understands.
In a post published on X, formerly Twitter, and retweeted by Buckingham Palace alongside a green heart emoji, Macmillan Cancer Support said: “We hope that by sharing his diagnosis so publicly, His Majesty The King will encourage others to reach out for support if they are concerned about cancer.
“If you have any potential signs or symptoms you’re worried about, speak to your GP to get them checked.
“We offer specialist, confidential support to people living with cancer and their loved ones. Visit our website, or call our Support Line on 0808 808 00 00. If you need to talk, we’ll listen.”
The post tagged the Royal family’s own Twitter handle, indicating that it had been made with their approval.
