Communal charities which Prince Charles is patron of have wished him well, after he tested positive with coronavirus.

The Prince of Wales, 71, is self-isolating at home in Scotland after displaying mild symptoms, Clarence House announced.

He is with the Duchess of Cornwall, 72, who does not have the virus, and “remains in good health and has been working from home throughout the last few days as usual”.

The Jewish Museum London wished him well, saying: “We are sorry to hear that our Patron, Prince Charles has tested positive for coronavirus. We’re grateful for his continued support of the museum, particularly in relation to our work with young people and wish him a full and speedy recovery.”

World Jewish Relief’s Chief Executive, Paul Anticoni, said on Twitter: “All of us at WJR wishing His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales, our wonderful Royal Patron, a full and speedy recovery“.

Olivia Marks-Woldman, Chief Executive of Holocaust Memorial Day Trust said the charity is “sending our best wishes to our Patron, HRH The Prince of Wales. We wish him well and hope he recovers soon. Our thoughts are with him, and with every individual in the UK and across the world currently affected by coronavirus.”
 Earlier this year, he made an historic Royal visit to Israel and the Palestinian territories.
