Lady Helen backs cancer charity event
7 Nov
Summary
- Lady Helen champions The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity.
- Her husband Timothy Taylor battled blood cancer.
- William and Catherine are patrons of the Trust.

Lady Helen recently participated in an event benefiting The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity, an organization she has long supported. Her commitment is personal, as her husband, Timothy Taylor, underwent successful treatment for Hodgkin lymphoma at the Royal Marsden Hospital in 1998. The charity holds significant importance for Lady Helen, who serves as a trustee.
In January 2026, Prince William and Princess Catherine became joint patrons of the Royal Marsden Foundation Trust, following Princess Catherine's preventative chemotherapy. The Ever After Garden, which Lady Helen visited, was established in 2019 by Dame Anya Hindmarch and Camilla Morton in memory of their friend, production designer Michael Howells, also a trustee of the Royal Marsden.
This engagement marks Lady Helen's second public appearance recently. In October 2026, she attended the Frieze Art Fair VIP Preview with her two eldest sons, Columbus and Cassius Taylor. Earlier in September 2026, she and Timothy were seen at the opening of the 'Reviving Craft: Reflection of the Mind' exhibition at Somerset House.
