On November 20, 2025, Queen Camilla hosted a reception for the winners and runners-up of the 2025 Queen’s Commonwealth Essay Competition (QCEC) at St James’s Palace in London. The theme for the 2025 competition, ‘Our Commonwealth Journey’, invited young writers to explore the diverse geographical, historical and personal journeys that connect and shape the 56 member countries of the Commonwealth.
For more than a decade, Queen Camilla has hosted the annual award ceremony for the competition. The Queen’s Commonwealth Essay Competition, the oldest international writing contest for schools, has been run by the Royal Commonwealth Society since 1883. The Queen is Vice-Patron of the Society.
