Our Royal Patrons
We are delighted to have HM King Charles serving as ZSL’s Royal Patron.
This continues an unbroken tradition of the reigning British Monarch being our Royal Patron, starting with King William IV in 1830.
HM The King served as our vice-patron when his mother, the late Queen Elizabeth II, was our Patron.
