King Charles III will address the nation today and declare the day of the funeral to be a public holiday.

In London, 96 rounds of gun salutes - one for every year of the Queen's life - will be fired in tribute to the late monarch from 1pm in Hyde Park by The King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery and at the Tower of London by the Honourable Artillery Company.  Churches will also toll their bells.

Books of remembrance will be available in town halls and also online on the official Royal site.

On Saturday, Parliament will sit for MP's to take the oath of allegiance to the new King.  Parliament's timetable will be greatly reduced dealing with only emergency matters until the end of the mourning period.

Union flags will go back to full mask as the proclamation of the new King is declared, then return to half mast.

Details of the Queen's funeral will be announced during the weekend.

Please note that London City has suspended its weekend events in a mark of respect for the Queen.  Everyone is welcome to share their stories of her life as we come together in our grief.
