King Charles To Get 75th-Birthday Call From Prince Harry

King Charles traditionally celebrated his 75th birthday by launching a project to assist people facing food insecurity.

However, it is expected that Charles would receive a birthday greeting from his younger son, Prince Harry, via a transatlantic phone conversation.

The King’s birthday celebrations will also include a reception for NHS nurses and midwives.

There have been ceremonial gun salutes fired, including at the Tower of London.

The King’s birthday obligations have highlighted public service rather than extravagant partying. However, a private dinner for close relatives and friends is expected.

The Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry, will not be present, but according to reliable sources, the Duke will call his father on his father’s birthday.

Following accusations that there had been no touch with Prince Harry regarding the birthday arrangements, the plans for a phone message may be interpreted as an olive branch.

The official inauguration of the King’s Coronation Food Project, with the King and Queen visiting a surplus-food distribution site in Didcot,

Oxfordshire has been the focal point of the public side of the King’s birthday.

The project is intended to address the dual issue of an increasing number of people being unable to purchase food and millions of tonnes of surplus food being thrown away.

In a Big Issue magazine story highlighting the effort, the King stated, “Food need is as real and urgent a problem as food waste.”
According to the King, “cost-of-living pressures” are causing “too many families and individuals to miss out on nutritious meals.”

The project aims to establish distribution centers connecting surplus food with food banks and charities providing food parcels.

“One in every five people in this country are suffering from what charities call ‘food insecurity’ – to me, they’re ‘hungry,'” says
Baroness Casey, one of the project’s co-chairs.
“People are going without meals,” she says.

On Tuesday evening, an animation promoting the Coronation Food Project will be shown on the digital advertising hoardings at Piccadilly Circus in London.

Charle’s announcement of a food-sharing effort on his birthday is circular.
Food rationing was still in effect in postwar Britain when Prince.

Charles was born on November 14, 1948.
To commemorate the birth of Princess Elizabeth’s first child, a system was devised to present a gift food basket to every family who had a child on the same day.

According to the National Archives archives, almost 2,600 gift packets with products such as soap, butter, dried egg, honey, marmalade, bacon, and meat were distributed during this period of hardship.

Charles celebrated his 75th birthday with other individuals his age, who were invited to a party at his Highgrove estate in
Gloucestershire on Monday.

He also commemorates the 75th anniversary of similar groups, including the NHS, by inviting 400 nurses and midwives to a reception at Buckingham Palace later on Tuesday.

Last week, the King renamed his organizations the King’s Trust and the Foundation rather than the Prince’s Trust and the Prince’s
Foundation, sending another message of perseverance rather than slowing down or passing over the reins to the next generation.

He will be in Dubai at the end of the month to speak at the COP28 climate change summit.

Charles is now the sixth-longest-living British monarch, after Elizabeth II, Victoria, George III, Edward VIII, and George II, at the age of 75.
