King Charles gives up seat to Shirley Bassey

More news from the valleys:

The Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama has announced Dame Shirley Bassey as its President for the next three years.

She succeeds HM King Charles who, when Prince of Wales, was President of the College, and was confirmed as continuing as its Patron earlier this year.

The President of the College is an honorary role which supports the College’s position as the national conservatoire of Wales and inspires the next generation of artists from across the world to study here and find their path into the professional industries.
