While asylum seekers to the NL were fewer in 2020 most likely due to COVID, there's been an increase in their numbers since August 2021. Good to see HM there getting her hands into the thick of it.

Not to be left out of the volunteer time, HM the King is the bingo caller at a home!

A rare joint engagement with Princess Beatrix, her son Prince Constantijn and daughter-in-law Princess Laurentian as they open the Holland Dance Festival. Prince Constantijn and Princess Laurentian only rarely carry out royal duties but they do happen from time to time.
