The Queen has called on the Commonwealth countries to use this year to share and strengthen the bond between them.

During an address at Westminster Abbey to mark Commonwealth Day, Her Majesty said we can use our cultural connections to bring us even closer together.

Several Commonwealth countries will help celebrate her Diamond Jubilee.

The Commonwealth, which was founded in 1949, includes 52 former colonies of the British Empire, along with Mozambique and Rwanda, which joined in 1995 and 2009 respectively.
