Hov, hvor blev de af? Dronning Marys øreringe var pludselig væk

Der ligger muligvis en meget lavpraktisk årsag bag, at dronning Mary måtte tage sine øreringe af.

Det sker meget sjældent: Sådan plejer man ikke at se dronning Mary

Dronning Mary havde en helt anderledes rolle end normalt, da hun deltog i "AFTRYK unge sætter".

Wonderful photos form the reception! The Mary Foundation was set up in 2007 and has been going strong ever since! Wonderful initiatives and programs continue to be created and/or promoted. Queen Mary is very hands on it seems! To think she worked on the starting this foundation during a time that she had Christian and Isabella (Isabella was literally only about 5 months old when the Foundation launched in 2007!), in a country that she was still getting accustomed to, while still fulfilling her duties and engagements as the Crown Princess and in a whole different language! I recall she did her first humanitarian trip abroad with the foundation in 2008. And over 17 years later, the foundation continues with wonderful initiatives and programs and going strong! Looking forward to what they have in store for 2025!

H.M. The Queen looks back on the year that has passed at the Mary Foundation.“All years are special. They contain their own impacts, events and memories. But 2024 in particular will leave a clear mark on my memory.This year, the Mary Foundation changed its name to the Mary Foundation - H.M. Queen Mary's Foundation.

The Queen.

Long version:

Året, der gik i Mary Fonden 2024 - MaryFonden.dk

www.maryfonden.dk

All years are special. They contain their own impacts, events and memories. But 2024 in particular will leave a clear mark on my memory. This year, the Mary Foundation changed its name to the Mary Foundation – H.M. Queen Mary’s Foundation. But our work continued unchanged, and we are still fighting for the same purpose through our three areas of focus: Bullying & Well-being, Loneliness and Violence in the Family.At the Mary Foundation, we always strive for more knowledge, effective efforts and new ways to make a difference for those who are outside the community. In 2024, this has meant, among other things, that we have practiced even more at involving young people in our work. Every time we do so, it has given us invaluable value and perspective.Our youth panel, which we established in 2022, has gained new members, and we have already benefited greatly from their insights and points. In the autumn, we launched AFTRYK, our newest initiative. Here we let young people come up with concrete suggestions for how the framework that adults set for young people's lives can be improved. We presented the young people's ideas for how to create a better transition from school to upper secondary education at an event where young people's voices filled both the stage and the audience. An exciting follow-up awaits us to see whether adults around the young people have taken up the suggestions, so that more young people find room for diversity in open, safe communities when they start upper secondary education.The fact that AFTRYK was specifically about transitions is, among other things, because we could see in our population survey 'Loneliness in Denmark' that around three times as many young people experience severe loneliness compared to 2013. And that over half of 16-19-year-olds who experience loneliness associate it with a change of school or education. We wanted to disseminate this and many more nuances about loneliness to both professionals working with young people and the general population. For this, we - for the Mary Foundation - have used both new and traditional formats. Among other things, we have supported the publication of the book ‘Lonely Youth’ about the many faces of loneliness among young people. And to unfold the book’s content about the complexity of loneliness in a more accessible way and for a wider target group, we have launched a small podcast series. Unfortunately, we do not have any easy answers when it comes to loneliness, but greater insight into loneliness is an important step. Podcasts are new to us at the Mary Foundation, and we look forward to exploring this format more in our work.At the Mary Foundation, we work to ensure that everyone feels like they belong. But if family life is characterized by violent relationships, it can be difficult to give children the safe start in life that they deserve, and victims of violence can feel alone and cut off from both their loved ones and the outside world. That is why the fight against violence in the family is a high priority area at the Mary Foundation. And now we have results that show that we have found a way to detect more prospective and new parents with partner violence in their lives, so that they can get help. Through the Together Without Violence initiative, we have allied ourselves with skilled professionals – midwives and health visitors – who are already close to expectant and new parents. Together, we have developed a model so that their professionalism and trust-inspiring relationship can help ensure that fewer children grow up with violence in the family. I am really proud of that. And I look forward to more results in the new year, when the spread of the model is also expected, so that even more children will hopefully avoid growing up in a family with violence.Several of our other projects are also experiencing growing pains and are being expanded to new age groups and arenas. This applies to projects that are intended to strengthen young people's social skills, build inclusive communities and prevent bullying. And this is necessary. Too many children and young people are still exposed to bullying. Bullying is not only limited to physical spaces, but also takes up space in digital ones. We are also constantly trying to become smarter in this field, even though the rapid development makes it difficult to keep up. Our ambition is to better equip the adults around children and young people, so that their understanding of and insight into digital bullying gives them a better opportunity to help children and young people.Unfortunately, there is still a long way to go before healthy and trusting communities are a natural part of everyone's everyday life. So we continue to fight. But fortunately, we are not fighting alone.Because we could not have acquired the knowledge, achieved the results or developed the models without our many partners. Therefore, I would like to say a big thank you to everyone who works with us to ensure that more people have a place in the community and experience belonging. It is precisely in partnerships and cooperation that we use each other best and can make the biggest difference for all those who deserve it.With wishes for a Merry Christmas and a hopeful New Year!H.M. The Queen

BT reports that Queen was coughing a bot and voice was a little hoarse.
But apart from that she was in high spirit.

The flu season has been unusually long this year and a lot of people are still down with flu. Many are hit pretty hard. Many get what we call "cold pneumonia" on top of their flu with a bad cough that can last weeks, often a couple of months.

Free from Bullying was the focal point when we met with our chairman H.M. The Queen Together with the Queen, we will visit the school Ecole maternelle Dussoubs in Paris, which has recently become a part of. The final details are being finalized in the planning. The Queen and I are very much looking forward to hearing about the school's work and experiences with the program. And see how it unfolds in a French context.In France, Free from Bullying has been adapted under the name Vivre Ensemble. The program has been tested at 18 Parisian schools, and the visit on Tuesday, April 1st marks the fact that the program will now be rolled out throughout France. The school visit is part of the Royal Couple's state visit to France.The Mary Foundation and @redbarnetdk are behind @friformobberi, which is a preventive anti-bullying program with a focus on strengthening children's communities.Internationally, it goes by the name Free of Bullying and has been translated to Greenland, the Faroe Islands, Iceland, Estonia and Romania. In 2022, France also joined.

Great to see that Free From Bullying is expanding into yet another country! Such an important initiative and one of the first ones launched by The Mary Foundation after the foundation began! A great program affecting those first years for kids! Very important!!

 

[polyesco]

A personal note from Mary about the expansion of the Free from Bullying program to France.
"It was touching to hear about the staff's positive experiences with the French version of Free from Bullying, Vivre Ensemble, at the school in Paris that I visited with First Lady Brigitte Macron.
After pilot testing in 18 Parisian schools and successful adaptation to France, the program is now to be rolled out throughout the country.
Although adaptation to the individual country is important, it is also clear to me after this visit that the values in Free from Bullying are so fundamental that they are relevant across borders. I am happy and proud of that.
At the Mary Foundation, we are passionate about contributing to safe children's communities where there is no place for bullying.
H.M. The Queen."

It is so wonderful to see this program expand to yet another country. This is one of the first programs launched by the Mary Foundation and has steadily increased its presence in Denmark and internationally. It is such an important issue to tackle. And, the Mary Foundation has expanded anti-bullying programs from schools to sports. And the school focus has been on Pre-school and the early years. Kudos to Queen Mary and the Mary Foundation! This is such important work and it should get much more international attention as the initiatives/programs her foundation has worked on have actually been tested, implemented and expanded.

What happened at the Mary Foundation in 2024?

During 2024, we have created change with new initiatives and used our voice to focus on the difficult issues within our focus areas Bullying and Well-being, Family Violence and Loneliness.

Our chairman H.M. The Queen begins the Mary Foundation's 2024 annual report with:

"For me, 2024 is a year in which we at the Mary Foundation have found a new, effective way to involve those whom much of our work is about, namely young people. Over the years, we have greatly benefited from the insights and perspectives from our Youth Panel. With our latest initiative, AFTRYK, we have taken the involvement of young people to new heights. Through the initiative, young people were given the opportunity to make concrete suggestions for how the framework that adults set for young people's lives can be improved. (...)"

Our director, Helle Østergaard, continues:

"Changes are rarely something that just happens. (...) 2024 has brought many changes that we have worked for. A changed and effective approach to detecting violent conflicts and violence that makes a difference for the family that is screened by a health visitor in Together without violence – Parents of young children. A changed method that shows that just half an hour of reading a week with LæseLeg's tools can strengthen the language of 1-2-year-old children and thus their ability to participate in communities. And a changed and more nuanced knowledge base about loneliness with our population survey, which helps break taboos and initiate relevant discussions about how we can better combat loneliness among young people.”

Such a difficult topic but Im glad the Mary Foundation tackles this.

"Violence is never the children's fault. It is our - the adults - responsibility to see, to reach out, to ask and to act.
We have to do it for the sake of each child. And we have to do it for each other. ”
This is what H.M. The Queen said in her opening speech at the conference 'Detection of domestic violence'.

I am on my way to Roskilde to meet with vocational school students and talk to them about community and well-being. We all need to be part of a safe community – someone to share the good days with and someone to lean on when things are difficult. That is why we at the Mary Foundation are working on the well-being program Me&We. It is widespread in after-school programs and 10th grade centers, but together with the students from Roskilde we will today launch it to the country's vocational schools. It will be interesting to hear the students' thoughts on Me&We, community and well-being and of course to meet them. H.M. The Queen.

Yes it is. The Mary Foundation always working to expand their long list of programs and initiatives based on studies they've supported and spearheaded. It is nice to see a royal foundation that year over year actually gets results based on tangible efforts (studies, initiatives, programs) that bring about relevant knowledge and results for the betterment of people and communities and in a reasonable timeframe. Queen Mary should feel very proud of the work the Foundation has done!

On a lighter note: Here is a funny moment and shows how quick witted Queen Mary is

I love how excited the kids looks in this photo

Mary comes across as the cool mom. Relatable and approachable. And obviously having 4 teenagers herself, she knows how to relate to them.

“When we gather the right people in one room, we can - together and with your help - unite knowledge, experiences and resources. That is where we can make the decisive difference for the individual child, the individual young person, the individual family.”
This is what Her Majesty the Queen said at this year's presidium meeting of the Mary Foundation.At the meeting, the presidium members were also introduced to AFTRYK.

With AFTRYK, we at theMary Foundation have found a method to involve young people in working on their well-being, so that action follows their words. We will continue to work on this in the future.

Thank you to the Tuborg Foundation, the Egmont Foundation Secretariat, the William Demant Foundation, the Ole Kirk Foundation, the Tryg Foundation, the Obelske Familiefond, the Hempel Foundation, the Østifterne and the Lauritzen Foundation for this year's meeting.
