Britain's King Charles and Queen Camilla attended the Royal Maundy Service at St. Asaph Cathedral in Wales on Thursday (April 2), only the second time the ceremony has been held in Wales.

The King presented around 77 men and 77 women, marking his age, with two small purses containing symbolic gifts of specially minted coins.

The custom, which dates back centuries, recognises recipients for their outstanding Christian service from across the country.

The service takes place annually on Maundy Thursday during the Christian Holy Week.
