Warrington scout snapped with Katy Perry on Coronation Day

Michael Mairs, who is part of Warrington Scouts, also met pop superstar Katy Perry during the day's proceedings, too.

The youngster was one of a select few Scouts chosen from across the country to attend the coronation of King Charles III on Saturday, May 6.

50 Scouts were selected to wish the King well on the day he was crowned, with the group attending a special service at St Margaret's Church, in Westminster Abbey.

Scouts played a key role in supporting the coronation by assisting with a number of events including - helping with crowd stewarding, supporting the public who were there to celebrate with the King, route lining and providing first aid services.

The Scouts were also responsible for managing the huge crowds at locations such as the big screen in St James Park, Hyde Park, Green Park, and the Admiralty Arch.

Michael said: "I was able to be a part of history. I feel incredibly lucky to be one of the few people who attended the private screening of the coronation service.

"This would not have been possible without Scouts.

"Being a part of the Scout community continues to open amazing doors for me – which I am forever grateful for."
