Catherine Princess of Wales
Catherine Princess of Wales visit to The Foundling Museum, London, UK - 25 May 2023
The Princess of Wales, Patron of the Foundling Museum, will visit the Museum in London to meet those with lived experience of the care system, as well as with foster carers and adoptive parents to hear about their experiences.
Her Royal Highness will meet with care leavers who are being supported by the Museum, before spending time with adoptive parents and foster carers to discuss the lifelong impact that positive, supportive relationships can have for children and young people.
The Foundling Museum tells the history of the Foundling Hospital, the UK's first children's charity which was founded in 1739 as a home for children whose mothers couldnât keep or care for them. The Museum delivers training, mentorship programmes and creative projects, led and developed by contemporary artists, writers and musicians, and continues to use creative action to transform and improve the lives of care-experienced young people.
