The Queen’s birthday is set to be marked with a 21-gun salute at noon on Tuesday.
Families in the Royal Borough have been invited to help mark Her Majesty’s 89th birthday.

Children will be picked from the crowd on the day to fire one of the cannons, under supervision.
Cllr Kellaway said: "This annual event is always a spectacle and tremendous fun. A few lucky youngsters will even get the opportunity to fire one of the cannons.
