Watch live as gun salutes mark King Charles III's 75th birthday. Tuesday will be a working day for the monarch, who will officially launch the Coronation Food Project with the Queen which aims to bridge the gap between food waste and food need. Charles and Camilla will visit a surplus food distribution centre outside London and meet staff and volunteers to hear about the ways in which food waste can be used for social good. The King will also host a Buckingham Palace reception highlighting the work of nurses and midwives over the decades as part of the NHS 75 celebrations. Birthday celebrations began early for the King when, on Monday, he was guest of honour at a party staged in the grounds of his Highgrove home in Gloucestershire. Charles joined a host of people, from community stalwarts nominated by friends and family who were also turning 75 this year, to representatives from organisations marking the same milestone, from the NHS to members of the Windrush generation
