COOKSTOWN was brought to a standstill on Tuesday, when the Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall began their two-day visit around Northern Ireland.
With hundreds of local people craning their necks for a view, the Royal couple undertook a public walkabout in Cookstown meeting with local businesses and members of the community.
Charles and Camilla thrilled the members of Superstars Café, a centre that helps train and provide employment for 20 young people with learning difficulties.
The couple took time to speak with the superstars, staff, volunteers and trainees and together unveil a plaque marking the visit.
Prince Charles also went on a tour to Lissan House, famous for having been the oldest domestic dwelling continuously occupied by one family in Ireland. He also helped celebrate Rural Support Northern Ireland’s 20th Anniversary at the
College of Agriculture Food and Rural Enterprise (CAFRE) at Loughry.
Meanwhile, The Duchess continued her longstanding work – raising awareness of the issue of domestic violence – when she visited a Women’s Aid refuge, where she met residents, staff, volunteers, and partners.
