Methodist Church, Kirkham - Chloe Carter
Kirkham Methodist Church Rose Queen 2025 is Chloe Carter, aged 10, who attends Kirkham and Wesham Primary School, located next door to church. Chloe has attended church since birth, as her sisters were in Sunday School at that time. She was also baptised at Kirkham Methodist Church.
Chloe is a fun, smiley and extremely resilient young lady, who is extremely excited to be Rose Queen this year. Both of Chloe's big sisters have had their turn, and Chloe has often looked back at the photos of their time and hoped her chance would come. Chloe has had experience of royal practices, when she was invited to Clarence House to help Queen Camilla decorate the Royal Christmas tree last December. It was a truly incredible experience and has certainly put us all in the Royal spirit.
Chloe loves many different hobbies and past-times, she does crochet and helps run a crochet group in her school for her class mates. She loves to game and almost always wins at board games. Chloe is a proud Sixer in Kirkham Methodist Brownies, which is held in the church hall, and is also an avid swimmer.
Chloe will be processing in a rickshaw, as her mobility difficulties make walking the route tricky, her Dad has the task of providing the pedal power. Chloe will be so beautiful on the day, her smile and wave will radiate to all those who line the streets. She is a very brave and courageous young person, and we are so incredibly proud of her. Good luck to all of the Rose Queens on this Club Day.
