HRH with patient John Allen and John’s son Richard Beaumont and granddaughter Chloe Beaumont who both flew to England from Australia
A Sydenham hospice received some Christmas magic after a visit from royalty.
Her Royal Highness Princess Alexandra stopped by St Christopher's hospice in Sydenham, on Wednesday, December 10.
A patron of the hospice, HRH visits the site, in Lawrie Park Road, annually during the festive season.
She was taken on a tour of the hospice by Matron of the inpatient unit, Anne Nash, and met with members of the management team.
On her walk round the wards, she met with patients and their families.
HRH finished the day by joining 100 hospice supporters for tea and cake in the Anniversary Centre.
