Harry will attend the annual WellChild Awards today

Harry will be in London on Monday for the annual WellChild Awards, celebrating the achievements and resilience of seriously ill youngsters and their families.

It will be Harry’s 15th time attending the annual award ceremony as he continues his work as the charity’s patron, which is a role he has held for 17 years.

The Duke will spend time with each winner and their families at a pre-ceremony reception then present an award to an inspirational child aged four to six.

In a statement issued by WellChild, the Duke said: “I am always privileged to attend the WellChild Awards and meet the incredible children, families and professionals who inspire us all with their strength and spirit.

“For 20 years these awards have highlighted the courage of young people living with complex health needs and shone a light on the devoted caregivers – family and professionals – who support them every step of the way. Their stories remind us of the power of compassion, connection and community.” The day of the award ceremony also marks the three-year anniversary since the death of Queen Elizabeth.
