The royal couple made a surprise statement as Prince William and Kate Middleton prepare to begin their royal engagements for their trip to the Scottish Isles.
In addition to celebrating their 14th wedding anniversary, the Prince and Princess of Wales’ Royal Foundation announced that it is giving two grants to important community areas on the Isle of Mull.
Through the Community Impact Program, the awards are anticipated to provide thousands of inhabitants of all ages with better facilities and chances to engage in activities that promote their health and well-being.
In order to promote additional play activities for both parents and kids, Aros Hall in Tobermory will be the first to convert its “Rainydays” play area into a soft play area.
The pair will speak with representatives of the local charity, Home-Start Lorn, as they arrive in the town of Tobermory on Mull, to find out how it is utilizing Kate’s Shaping Us Framework program.
The funding will be used by Pennyghael Community Hall to update its internal common areas and repair the roof in order to increase its longevity.
Mull-based interior designer Banjo Beale has kindly offered to assist with the job by sharing his knowledge on how to update the areas.
As Kate embarks on her first royal tour since overcoming cancer last year, the trip also represents a significant turning point in her life. In addition to their official travel, the pair will have some leisure time during their two-day anniversary celebration.
