Genuine goodness: Prince William further continues his mother's work
As part of his ongoing relationship with homeless charity Centrepoint, he spent a night last week sleeping rough on the streets of London to gain a further insight into homelessness - albeit he did so in reasonably controlled conditions.
But how nice. At a time when we despair at the state of the political class, Prince William - a lovely young man if ever there was one - puts himself in the position of those far, far less fortunate than himself to gain an understanding that will assist him in his future charitable works.
Prince William was introduced to the Centrepoint charity at a very young age as it was one of the charities that his mother - the eternally divine Diana, Princess of Wales - dedicated a lot of energy towards helping.
How lovely to see Prince William continuing his mother's work with much dedication and how refreshing to see something in the news which raises a smile and makes one remember that there is genuine goodness out there.
Those interested in helping Centrepoint with their work can find out more on their website.
