Today, The Princess Royal will host a Garden Party for The Not Forgotten Association at Buckingham Palace. The Royal Family has a long-standing association with the charity which was established in 1920, ‘to provide comfort, cheer and entertainment for the wounded ex-servicemen still in hospital as a result of the Great War’. With the approval of King George V and Queen Mary, Garden Parties were held at Buckingham Palace for the wounded servicemen, who undertook a tour of the Royal Mews; including the riding school, were given a tea and cigarettes (provided by Queen Mary and Princess Mary), and then allowed to 'sit and play about as they like' in the Garden. The first of these events was held on 23 August 1921, during which a telegram of thanks was sent to Their Majesties and Princess Mary, who replied that they were pleased to hear that those attending had "enjoyed their afternoon in the garden and hope[d] that these entertainments will continue to be a success". Not Forgotten Association Garden Parties still occur annually at Buckingham Palace. From 1921, there has also been an annual Christmas Tea Party, initially in the Royal Mews at Buckingham Palace and now at St James's Palace.

Princess Mary became the first Royal Patron of The Not Forgotten Association, a role she held until her death in 1965, when HRH The Duchess of Kent took over as Patron. She was then succeeded by The Princess Royal in 2000.
