Kate Middleton Trades Tiara for Hard Hat at Hospice
22 Oct
Summary
- Princess of Wales visited a children's hospice construction site.
- The visit occurred less than 48 hours after a state banquet.
- The hospice expansion is slated for completion in 2028.
The Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, recently showcased her adaptable style by visiting a children's hospice construction site. This engagement followed closely on the heels of a formal state banquet she attended.
Her visit on October 22 was to The Treehouse, a children's hospice where she serves as a patron for East Anglia's Children's Hospices (EACH). Donning a hard hat and high-visibility jacket, she toured the site of new developments.
The expansion project at The Treehouse is anticipated to conclude in 2028. It includes the addition of a hydrotherapy pool, a dedicated space for teenagers, and enhanced kitchen facilities. Following the tour, she interacted with children and families benefiting from the hospice's services.
Princess Diana, the Princess of Wales's late mother-in-law, inaugurated EACH's first hospice in 1989, highlighting a long-standing royal connection to the organization. Kate Middleton has been a patron since 2012, a role that commenced shortly after her marriage to Prince William.
