The Earl of Wessex will make his second visit to the Royal Cornwall Show in June.

The visit will take place on the second day, Friday, June 9, and it is hoped that the visit programme will include as many of the show’s key elements as possible.

The Earl made his first visit to the show in 2007. He was due to be accompanied on that visit by his wife, the Countess of Wessex, but unfortunately she was unable to attend on the day due to ill-health.

The Countess did however visit the show over two days in 2014 when she was President of the Royal Cornwall Agricultural Association.

The Royal Cornwall Show runs from June 8-10. Details at www.royalcornwall.co.uk
