King Charles III is marking his first anniversary as monarch, having recently returned to public engagements after being diagnosed with cancer.
Recently returning to public duties after a cancer diagnosis, the King participated in three events last week, showcasing the positive impact of his outpatient treatment.
To mark his coronation anniversary, gun salutes will resound throughout London on Monday. The King’s Troop Royal Horse Artillery will fire 41 volleys at noon from Green Park, followed by the Honourable Artillery Company’s 62-gun salute at Tower Wharf an hour later, including an additional 21 shots for the City of London.

The Head of State has attended multiple events since the announcement a little over a week ago that he would resume public engagements.
His initial event was a visit to the University College Hospital Macmillan Cancer Centre in London on Tuesday. There, he interacted with fellow cancer patients, expressed his surprise at the diagnosis, and reassured inquirers that he was feeling “well.”

On Wednesday, Buckingham Palace was the venue for the presentation of the Coronation Roll to the King and Queen, who marvelled at the document which recorded all the key events from the ceremony.
The King visited the Royal Windsor Horse Show for the first time as monarch on Friday and was hugged by his niece Zara Tindall, and later joined spectators in the stands to watch equestrian events.
Charles and Camilla’s coronation took place on May 6, with with thousands braving the rainy weather to take to the streets to watch their procession in the Gold State Coach.
The deeply religious ceremony in London’s Westminster Abbey was followed by a weekend of celebrations including a pop concert at Windsor, where royals including Prince George and Princess Charlotte danced the night away.
Buckingham Palace finally dropped “Consort” from Camilla’s title, having cautiously let the idea of a new Queen settle into the public’s consciousness in the wake of Elizabeth II’s death.
In the defining moment, St Edward’s Crown was lowered onto the King’s head by the Archbishop of Canterbury.
