Harry said: “For the past 15 years that I’ve been patron, I’ve been immensely grateful for the work that WellChild does and moved by the stories I hear and the people I meet.”

King Charles’ younger son added: “For children and young people with complex medical needs, WellChild provides high-quality care services and the opportunity to thrive at home alongside their families.”
