Surrey and Sussex police are urging the public to stay alert and vigilant during the Coronation celebrations of His Majesty King Charles III and Her Majesty the Queen Consort this weekend. While there is no specific intelligence threat linked to the event, the terror threat level in the UK remains at substantial, which means a terrorist attack is likely. Crowded places and large events can be at increased risk, and for that reason, people are being asked to be on their guard.
Communities in villages, towns, and cities will be busier than usual, and it is important for everyone to look out for each other. Police will be carrying out proactive patrols in both counties, and anyone who sees anything that doesn’t seem right is being urged to speak up.
