The screens will be in Poole Park next to the Kitchen waterside park, at Christchurch Quay and in Bournemouth’s Lower Gardens.

Graham Farrant, chief executive of BCP Council, said: “We want to give BCP residents the opportunity to come together, as a community and collectively mourn the passing of our late monarch, who was widely cherished and will be remembered fondly by many residents. It is right that on this unique occasion we take additional steps to make this possible for all those who cannot or do not wish to travel to London in person.

“In line with national guidance, we will also be joining with other local authorities and pausing non-essential services during the Bank Holiday.”

Chairman of BCP Council, Councillor Nigel Hedges, said: “Ahead of the state funeral, there will be non-civic and faith-led events taking place throughout our communities to commemorate Her Majesty the Queen. Our books of condolence will remain in place and available to sign, except on the Bank Holiday. Floral tributes may continue to be laid at the War Memorials in Bournemouth and Poole, and at Christchurch Priory.

“I would also like to remind you that there will be a nationally observed one-minute silence taking place this Sunday at 8pm. I’m sure we will all stop what we are doing and to take this moment to pause and reflect on Queen Elizabeth’s lifetime of service.”
