His Majesty’s Lord-Lieutenant of Herefordshire
Welcome to the Herefordshire Lieutenancy website.
Edward Harley CBE was appointed Lord-Lieutenant of Herefordshire by Her late Majesty The Queen on the advice of the Prime Minister in September 2020. The Lord-Lieutenant is His Majesty The King’s personal representative in the County.
As The King's representative, and within the established systems, the Lord-Lieutenant identifies and recognises individual and institutional effort, and celebrates the various elements of the cultural, historic, artistic and spiritual life of the county’s community in such a way as to encourage a sense of identity and civic pride in the county.
The role of the Lieutenancy is entirely non-political and the Lord-Lieutenant and all his Deputies are unpaid. Following the example of The King, they remain strictly neutral with respect to political matters – both locally and nationally.
