Princess of Wales charitable engagements

Overview

The Princess of Wales has conducted several visits to charitable organizations in the United Kingdom.

In late September, she visited The Forward Trust in northeast London during Addiction Awareness Week, where she emphasized the role of outdoor spaces in the healing process for those battling addiction.

In October, acting as patron of East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices (EACH), the Princess visited a charity shop in Hoveton and a hospice construction site in Ipswich. At The Treehouse hospice expansion site, she observed progress on new facilities, including a hydrotherapy pool and a wellbeing suite. During this visit, she met with children and families receiving palliative support, including a young girl with a rare congenital heart defect and a teenager with a genetic muscle disorder.

Following the hospice tour, she visited Café 98, a charity shop operated by EACH in Hoveton. While interacting with shoppers, she mentioned missing her eldest son, Prince George, since he began boarding at Eton College the previous month, noting she looks forward to her children returning for the upcoming half-term break.
