Kate Middleton, has reaffirmed her dedicated commitment to the importance of child care and development in society. Through her ‘Shaping Us’ initiative, she seeks to raise awareness about child development.
In line with her tireless work, the Princess of Wales visited the Foundling Museum, which tells the story of the Foundling Hospital, the UK’s first charity for foundlings, founded in 1739 to provide refuge for children whose mothers were unable to care for them.
During her visit to the museum, Princess Middleton met with individuals who spent their childhoods in foster care, as well as caregivers and foster parents, showing a genuine interest in hearing about their first-hand experiences. Together, they discussed the lasting impact that positive and supportive relationships can have on the lives of children and young people, highlighting the importance of building meaningful connections early in childhood.
Despite a minor incident on arrival, where she encountered a protester holding a sign accusing the monarchy of child abuse, Middleton, ever elegant and smiling, did not let this affect her engagement. She continued her visit and chatted amicably with museum staff outside.
During her stay, she coincided with Professor Green, a leading member of her solidarity initiative ‘Shaping Us’, reaffirming their support and joint work for the benefit of children and young people.
Kensington Palace issued a statement highlighting the princess’ focus during the visit on raising awareness of the critical importance of early childhood.
Middleton has focused her discussions on the need to ensure that every child has supportive and loving networks in their environment, as well as the opportunity to make positive and lasting connections with others, laying the foundation for a promising future.
In addition, during her visit to the museum, the Princess of Wales participated in a talk related to the exhibition currently on display, ‘Finding Family’, which explored how creative writing has been a valuable tool for a group of young people to express their emotions and experiences.
