Yesterday, The Bishop of Ripon, Rt. Rev Dr Helen-Ann Hartley, wrote a piece for the Stray Ferret that reflected on Prince Philip's service to the nation and her experience of taking part in the Duke of Edinburgh scheme.

She wrote:

"HRH Prince Philip will perhaps best be remembered for his unwavering support of Her Majesty the Queen.  Married for 73 years (that’s amazing in itself), their lives witnessed so many ups and downs in global life: their constancy something of a foundational soundtrack to our own nation’s challenges and joys."
