• Prince William steps back into the spotlight after summer break
  • William is set to make a heartfelt visit to Homelessness exhibit
  • He'll visit an art display in early September
This exhibit, a collaboration between William's Homewards program and the Saatchi Gallery, aims to shed light on the complexities of homelessness in the U.K. Through the power of art, it tells the stories of those who've faced homelessness firsthand, offering a new perspective on an issue William believes can be "prevented and ended."

A royal effort to end homelessness

Launched in June 2023, the Homewards program is the latest effort by the Royal Foundation to tackle homelessness. By working in key locations across the U.K., the initiative strives to make homelessness "rare, brief, and non-recurrent." The upcoming visit by the Prince of Wales to the Saatchi Gallery not only highlights the program's work but also emphasizes the royal family's dedication to social causes.

During his visit, William will meet with artists and individuals whose experiences have inspired the exhibit's pieces. He'll also spend time with children from Creative Kids, a charity involved in the "Open Doors" section of the exhibit, showcasing doors created by young people from the six Homewards locations.

Royal family's summer break and health battles

The royal family traditionally steps back from public engagements from mid-July to early September, a tradition that continued this year amidst health battles within the family. Both King Charles (75) and Princess Kate (42) are currently undergoing treatment for cancer, with the latter focusing on her recovery away from the public eye.

Despite these challenges, the royal couple has remained active behind the scenes, issuing a video message in August to congratulate Team Great Britain on their success at the 2024 Paris Olympics. The message featured a bearded Prince William and a resilient Princess Kate, showcasing their unwavering support for national achievements.
