However, due to her ongoing mobility issues, a decision on whether she can travel will be taken nearer the time. A spokesperson for Buckingham Palace said Her Majesty hopes to be able to attend. Travelling up to Scotland will be Prince Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Edward and his wife Sophie, and they will all be hosting special events throughout the week.

The Queen has a close affinity with Scotland, and often spends her summers in Balmoral, her Scottish estate, arriving in mid-July and leaving in September or October.
Ahead of her Platinum Jubilee celebrations, the 96-year-old monarch travelled to the private estate.

Her granddaughter Princess Eugenie has previously revealed that the Queen is "happiest" at her rural Scottish estate. "I think Granny is the most happy there," Eugenie said in documentary, Our Queen At Ninety.
"I think she really, really loves the Highlands. Walks, picnics, dogs—a lot of dogs, there's always dogs—and people coming in and out all the time."
