During the visit she met pupils, teachers, parents and Place2Be practitioners; took part in creative activities like making “belonging maps” with students to help them reflect on what makes them feel secure and connected; toured the school’s Early Years outdoor play space designed to support emotional development; and heard firsthand how mental health support has helped local families.

On February 3, 2026, The Princess of Wales carried out a day of engagements in West Wales focused on celebrating textile heritage, modern manufacturing, creativity, and community-based charity work.

Her visit began at Melin Tregwynt, a historic, family-run woolen mill in Pembrokeshire renowned for its traditional Welsh blankets and textiles. During her tour, the Princess observed the weaving process and met the skilled craftspeople responsible for producing the mill’s distinctive designs. She spoke with staff about the importance of preserving heritage techniques, sustaining rural employment, and passing specialist skills on to future generations, highlighting the enduring value of Welsh wool and craftsmanship.

The Princess then travelled to Hiut Denim in Cardigan, a company credited with reviving denim manufacturing in the town. While touring the factory floor, she met employees and trainees involved in producing jeans entirely in the UK. Catherine took part in the manufacturing process herself, cutting fabric and attaching a “Made in Wales” label to a pair of jeans.

Later in the day, The Princess visited the Welsh Quilt Centre in Lampeter, where she viewed a selection from its extensive collection of quilts. She learned how quilting traditions bring people together through shared creativity and storytelling, and how textile arts can support wellbeing, connection, and a sense of community, particularly in rural areas.

To conclude her visit, The Princess made an unscheduled stop at the Ty Hafan children’s hospice charity shop in Lampeter. She met staff and volunteers, thanked them for their work, and showed interest in the shop’s textile and haberdashery items. The visit highlighted the vital role played by charity shops in supporting children with life-limiting conditions and their families, as well as the importance of volunteering and community fundraising. Catherine became Patron of Ty Hafan in 2025. You can check out Catherine’s efforts with Tyfan thus far here.

On January 20, 2026, The Prince and Princess of Wales, known in Scotland as the Duke and Duchess of Rothesay, visited Stirling and Falkirk to celebrate Scotland’s rich cultural heritage and the ways long-standing traditions continue to strengthen communities and inspire future generations.

Their visit began with an impromptu stop at The Kelpies in Falkirk, the largest equine sculptures in the world, which stand at one hundred feet tall and weigh three hundred tonnes each. The sculptures have become a powerful symbol of Scotland’s industrial and mythological past. From there, the royal couple traveled to Stirling for the first official engagement of the day at the National Curling Academy, Scotland’s premier high-performance curling facility.

At the academy, William and Kate met members of Team GB’s Olympic and Paralympic curling squads, hearing firsthand about their training programs and preparations for upcoming international competitions. The couple also took to the ice themselves, joining athletes for a curling session.

The Duke and Duchess then moved into the heart of Stirling to visit Radical Weavers, a handweaving studio and charitable organization dedicated to preserving and teaching traditional textile crafts. The studio offers a wide range of workshops, including specialized classes in Scottish tartan weaving, helping ensure these historic skills are passed on to future generations. After the visit, the couple took time to greet well-wishers gathered outside the studio.

Their final stop of the day was The Gothenburg Pub, locally known as “The Goth” in the former mining village of Fallin. Founded in 1910, the pub is one of the few remaining establishments operating under the Gothenburg system, a community-focused model in which profits are reinvested locally. The visit highlighted the enduring role of community institutions in sustaining social life in rural Scotland.

It’s been a while since we’ve reflected on a past engagement! This week, let’s revisit William and Catherine during their Royal Tour of New Zealand and Australia. The couple embarked on a three-week tour, which marked their first official trip overseas with their son, Prince George.

On April 9, 2014, Their Royal Highnesses, then the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince William and Catherine, visited Plunket. This national not-for-profit organization provides free parental support services for children and families in New Zealand.

Before the engagement, Plunket selected ten families to meet the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Each family had a baby born just a few weeks before Prince George’s birthday on July 22, 2013, and like William and Catherine, they were all first-time parents.

The Princess of Wales has taken on her second patronage of 2025 with the Ty Hafan Children’s Hospice.

I’ve posted the statement below.

Earlier this month she joined Prince William as Joint Patron of the Royal Marsden Hospital where she received treatment for cancer.

The Princess of Wales has today become Patron of Ty Hafan Children’s Hospice, the first children’s hospice in Wales.

Ty Hafan – which translates from Welsh to ‘Haven House’ in English – provides free care and support to children with life-shortening conditions and their families, both within the hospice and in homes and communities in Wales. Ty Hafan?offers a lifeline vital throughout a child’s life, as well as at the end of life – through bereavement and beyond.

At the heart of Ty Hafan is a commitment to providing holistic support, focusing on the physical, emotional, social and spiritual needs of the children in its care and their families. The organisation is also focused on fostering connections, creating a feeling of community that ensures children and families feel more supported through their shared experiences.

The announcement comes as The Princess visited Ty Hafan’s hospice in Sully, near Cardiff, South Wales, where she spent time with children, families and staff.

Irfon Rees, Chief Executive of Ty Hafan, said:

“We are deeply honoured that Her Royal Highness The Princess of Wales has become Patron of Ty Hafan and it was an absolute pleasure to welcome Her Royal Highness to our hospice for the first time today. As our Patron, Her Royal Highness will be an inspiration for children with life-shortening conditions and their families, our dedicated staff and volunteers and everyone who so generously supports us. No parent ever imagines that their child’s life will be short. Sadly this is the reality facing thousands of families in Wales. We can’t stop this happening, but together we can make sure that no one lives their child’s short life alone.”

The wellbeing of children and their families has always been close to The Princess’ heart. The first patronage Her Royal Highness took on on becoming a Member of The Royal Family was EACH (East Anglia’s Children’s Hospice) and she maintains a close relationship with the organisation to this day. The Princess is looking forward to building a similar relationship with Ty Hafan and the children and families it serves in Wales.
