Queen's Grandchildren "Official" Engagements (2016)

The Queen's Grandchildren Peter, Zara, Beatrice, Eugenie, Louise, & James don't regularly undertake "official" engagements like William or Harry. They are not regularly listed on the CC and do not receive any funding for their charitable work.

They do however attend the occasional official engagement and do work for various charities and organizations. They also hold a number of patronages.

This is a list of the Official Engagements Peter, Zara, Beatrice, Eugenie, Louise, & James attend (e.g. Service of Thanksgiving at St. Paul's Cathedral). This list also includes events they attend as a member of the Royal Family or as Patron of the organization.

We try not to include charity work that related to their job or events they attend in a private capacity, except when they are "official engagements". But it is hard to draw a line between what should be included, and what should not. Also, things are not widely publicized so, undoubtedly, we will miss some things.

Count for 2016:
Peter - 9
Zara - 7 
Beatrice - 35
Eugenie - 17
Louise - 8
James - 6
