Welcome to the website of The Surrey Lieutenancy

Here you can find information and updates on the role and activities of the Lord-Lieutenant of Surrey, Michael More-Molyneux, and the ways in which the Lieutenancy supports and impacts on the life, business and communities of our county.

The role and mission of the Surrey Lieutenancy is to serve the Sovereign and connect the communities of the county. This brings the Lieutenancy two core responsibilities:
– To uphold the dignity and position of the Crown by assisting and representing it in all aspects of the life of Surrey.
– To support the values the Crown represents by celebrating, inspiring and promoting the vibrancy of county life.
