Different topic have Charles or Camilla gone to Manchester or issued a statement.

I know the Queen did.
Charles needs to look caring and decisive at a time like this.

How would releasing a statement or going to Manchester make Charles look decisive?

Lovely story!

What wonderful community spirit from the Police and it really demonstrates that they appreciate that people of that generation "don't want to be a bother" when others are all "I want", "I deserve" and "I'm entitled" when in fact, "they need" for all their stoicism.

Kudos to the Police for recognising how special this family is and the same for Camilla for opening her home for tea and a private tour. She really is down to earth and "her blood's worth bottling".

Any pictures or press coverage?

No, haven’t seen anything so far. I believe this was a more ''private'' visit, Charles has meetings and dinners all the time with no photos ever turning up.
