The King, 77, was diagnosed with an undisclosed form of the disease in early 2024 and has been receiving weekly treatment ever since.
Despite this he has continued with a packed working diary, with five state visits this year alone.
In his message, the monarch will stress the importance of cancer screening programmes in enabling early diagnosis and will 'reflect on his own recovery journey'.
It was recorded during the last week of November in the Morning Room at Clarence House.
