In Loving Memory of

HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh

The University of Bath has opened a book of condolence marking the loss of His Royal Highness Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. A keen supporter of University education, Prince Philip also helped us to mark key moments in our growth as a University community, visiting Bath as part of the Golden Jubilee celebrations in 2002 and in the same year officially opening 9 West, home to our Department of Chemical Engineering.

Here at Bath we join with the rest of the country in mourning the loss of His Royal Highness Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. Our thoughts are with his family at this very difficult time, and especially with Her Majesty the Queen and our Chancellor, His Royal Highness The Earl of Wessex Prince Edward, on the loss of his father. Prince Philip shared a passion for inspiring generations of young people. The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award has created a legacy of equipping and empowering young people from all communities to build the skills, confidence, and resilience they need to make the most of life. A keen supporter of University education, he also helped us to mark key moments in our growth as a University community, visiting Bath as part of the Golden Jubilee celebrations in 2002 and in the same year officially opening 9 West, home to our Department of Chemical Engineering. He leaves an extraordinary legacy of public service as the longest serving Consort to a British monarch….

Sending sincere condolences and my thoughts and prayers to the whole Royal Family at this time but especially The Queen. A time of great sadness, loss and grief but also celebrating and remembering the absolutely remarkable, inspiring and wonderful man Prince Philip was! I remember being there when The Duke of Edinburgh and the Queen touched down in their helicopter on campus whilst I was a student at the University and my excitement and the honour of being so close to them. Both were full of smiles and chatted so openly, such a highlight! An incredible legacy of devotion to duty, to young people, the natural world, to those from less fortunate backgrounds and many strong passions. His Duke of Edinburgh Awards will have changed millions of lives, his many legacies will live on for generations. With much love, Lucy….

His devotion and dedication to his wife of 73 years, The Queen, is inspiring. His fondness for his adopted country, the United Kingdom, is appreciated. His inquisitive mind towards subjects such as nature, science, sport and theology certainly kept him young in body, mind and spirit. His dry wit and humour was rather mischevious. His passion for young people have given thousands of them new skills, confidence and a brighter outlook on life via through the Duke of Edinburgh Scheme as well as saving school playing fields. He achieved all this despite a fractured upbringing. You see, it’s not so much about how your story starts, but how your story ends. My condolences and prayers go out to his family, particularly the Queen. He will be sorely missed. …

With thanks and recognition for all that Prince Philip did, often behind the scenes, to support the Queen and the institution of the Royal family, thereby building a vital strand of continuity for our country, and our international relationships….
