The Lieutenant-Governor of Guernsey, Lieutenant General Sir Richard Cripwell, commented:
'I am delighted that Her Royal Highness will visit Alderney for what will be a significant anniversary for the Bailiwick. Homecoming is always a very special occasion, marking a unique event, and I am sure The Duchess will enjoy meeting with Homecomers, hearing their stories and sharing in Alderney’s special day.’
