The Prince and Princess of Wales have become leading names in several key charitable areas, thanks to the creation of key foundations which have been developed and backed by years of research.

Whether it is Prince William's Earthshot Prize or Catherine's Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood - including projects such as the Big 5 Survey and Shaping Us - the couple have chosen to have a smaller number of patronages and focus entirely on how they can make a difference in those areas.This is a different approach from other members of the Royal Family who are patrons to hundreds of charities across a wide range of different topics.

While the couple are each also supporters for other areas such as mental health, the emergency services, homelessness and addiction, one royal expert has questioned how long they will be able to adopt this modern approach of each having a handful of patronages.

Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond exclusively told OK!, "I think Catherine and William have taken this view which they may not be able to stick to which is to have far fewer patronages and make a difference in the ones that they do support. "For Catherine we're talking about mental health, early learning, bullying and addiction, so I don't know if she'll be able to carry that forward because there is such a demand for royal patronages and as future queen, she is going to be in huge demand." One of Prince William's leading charitable interests is the environment and he launched The Earthshot Prize in October 2020.
