The Queen has revealed her simple tip for reducing stress amid the Princess of Wales and King’s cancer diagnoses.

Camilla gathered authors, academics, and supporters for an evening reception at Clarence House on Tuesday (26 March) to mark new research commissioned by her Queen’s Reading Room literary project.

On her first public engagement since Kate’s diagnosis was announced to the public, the Queen gave a speech on the impact reading can have on mental health.

She said: “In addition to our five a day and our 10,000 steps, we should all be aiming for at least five minutes of reading every day for invaluable benefits for brain health and mental wellbeing.”
