Prince William visited Child Bereavement UK in Cheshire, supporting bereaved children and families. He engaged with kids and volunteers, offering comfort.
Seven people are there to help with bereavement. William has supported the charity since 2009. He recently met families the charity has assisted. He asked a girl named Rebecca if talking was hard.
Rebecca lost her dad suddenly. She said she didn’t know how she felt at first. The charity guided her feelings. William said support is important. It helps people learn to help themselves later on.
William met kids and volunteers during his visit. He also signed their guest book. Meika told William she stopped going to school. This was after her grandma passed away. William understood it’s hard to focus then.
School seems impossible in normal life. William watched kids make colorful salt jars. The colors reminded them of loved ones. He also met the charity’s staff and supporters. A young boxer, Clayton, raises money for them.
His coach used their service. Clayton felt William was genuine. He said William understands grief. William knows what people go through. He has been the charity’s patron since 2009.
Sue Randall manages Child Bereavement UK. Sue stated Prince William has been brilliant. He does a lot for them as patron. Having him helps the charity’s public image. She said he deeply understands their work.
William saw the “Before I Die” wall. It’s a global thing and makes people think. People consider what matters most in life. Young people the charity helps wrote on the wall. William signed the guest book before leaving.
