Returning to a cause dear to his mother, Prince William.
Prince William opened two new residential complexes at The Passage in London on Thursday afternoon. The charity’s patron since 2019 is The Prince of Wales. The group works to help individuals in need and put an end to homelessness.
Prince William and Prince Harry used to be brought to the charity by Princess Diana, and he has visited on numerous occasions over the years. In 1992, she introduced the future king for the first time to the charity.
The official opening of Bentley House and Passage House took place during the visit, and the husband of Kate Middleton appeared to be having a wonderful time. According to People, the renovated structures can accommodate roughly 225 people without homes.
The residents, volunteers, and staff all heard from Prince William. Sister Joan, a nun with the Daughters of Charity St. Vincent D. Paul, was also reunited with him; he recognised her from a trip he had taken to The Passage as a little boy. According to reports, Prince William promised her that he would bring his three children, Prince George, 9, Princess Charlotte, 7, and Louis, 4, to the charity in the same way that his mother had done.
“She was so lovely and gentle that I am at a loss for words. She had no airs or graces and was just a regular person who could relate to everybody “About the late Princess Diana, Joan reportedly told Hello! Magazine.
Homelessness was referred to as a “human catastrophe” by Prince William. He promised to keep doing his part to put an end to it.
According to the Duke of Cambridge, “No one sector or organisation can abolish homelessness; but by working together in true collaboration, groups like The Passage can help show it is not an unavoidable part of life. “I think doing this will help make homelessness uncommon, transient, and infrequent. I’m motivated to contribute significantly to making this a reality and am excited to provide more information later this year.
“I am personally more committed than ever to play my role in working with others to do everything we can to solve the human tragedy that is homelessness,” he said as he put it in his closing statement.
On Twitter, Prince William posted some images and videos from the trip.
