They gathered in Pennywell where Charles went to the community centre among other venues.
Heartwarming on a cold day
It was a chilly day and people wrapped up warm for a historic occasion.
Despite the cold, children lined up to get a view of the then Prince of Wales.
Charles also called in at Age Concern and there to say hello was Sunderland's oldest person - Dorothy Ovenden who was aged 107 at the time.
Were you one of the people he chatted to that day? What did he have to say and did we get you on camera?
