Queen uses buggy to visit Chelsea Flower Show
The Queen is visiting the Chelsea Flower Show in London - using a buggy for the First Time at The Event , as she tours the gardens and exhibits.
The 96-year-old monarch, who has mobility problems, is being driven around the annual flower show.
" Adjustments have been made for The Queen 's comfort, " said a Buckingham Palace spokeswoman.

She recently attended The Royal Windsor Horse Show and made a surprise visit last week to officially open the Elizabeth Line.
On Monday afternoon The Queen arrived at the showcase of The Royal Horticultural Society , The Day before it opens to an expected 140,000 public visitors.
She was last seen using a buggy to get around in 2013, at an event in the gardens of Buckingham Palace , and before that during a visit to Australia in 2011.
The Queen has been a regular attender at the Chelsea Flower Show over several decades, with 39 gardens and 80 exhibits on display this year.
This includes a Platinum Jubilee floral tribute to her 70-year reign.
Showing her around was Keith Weed , president of The Royal Horticultural Society .
The Show was cancelled by the Covid pandemic in 2020 and rescheduled to September in 2021 - But is now back in its usual Spring season for the First Time since 2019.
Earlier on Monday a rose was planted in The Garden of Buckingham Palace named after John Ystumllyn, believed to have been one of Britain's first black gardeners.
The Rose , named after the 18Th Century horticulturalist, is claimed to have been " The First in the country named after an individual from an ethnic minority background".
" The Rose has been bred as a mark of friendship and community, and I hope guests and visitors to The Garden will have the opportunity to reflect on what this rose represents for many years to come, " said a message from The Queen .
