Britain’s Prince Charles is set to receive an Honorary Fellowship from Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU).
The prince will collect the accolade, which recognises his tireless work for his country and people, in a ceremony on April 23.
LJMU vice chancellor Professor Michael Brown told Britain’s Daily Telegraph newspaper: ‘Through his charities and extensive patronage, Prince Charles has helped many people fulfil their true talent and potential.
‘He also works tirelessly to promote and protect what he believes is good about Britain and its people.
‘It is for this vision and commitment that LJMU is proud to welcome him as an Honorary Fellow of the University.’ Charles - who is first in line to the throne - joins an eclectic list of fellows, including former Queen guitarist Brian May, TV chat show host Paul O’Grady and legendary TV presenter Johnny Ball. After receiving the honour, the prince will deliver one of the university’s Roscoe Lectures - named after Liverpool’s William Roscoe who famously campaigned for the abolition of slavery.
The ceremony will take place on St George’s Day, which will also see the official opening of the city’s St George’s Hall which has undergone a £23 million restoration.
