Hello Grimsby! 👋
The King has spent the day in Grimsby, meeting local leaders, organisations and businesses helping to shape the future of the town and create opportunities to benefit the community.
🧗At Horizon Youth Zone, His Majesty spent time with young people and heard about the afterschool activities provided to build confidence and social skills.
🤝 The King later visited The CARE hub, a community care and housing organisation designed to provide support to members of the town.
⚽️ At Blundell Park, home of @OfficialGTFC and one of England’s oldest professional football clubs, The King joined members of the Our Future collective. The national charity works with people across Grimsby to build relationships, support leadership and create the conditions for citizen-led change.
Over the past two days in Reggio Emilia, I have seen first hand the power of nature and creativity that put human connection at the centre of a child’s world.
I have had such a deeply moving and unforgettable time here. Thank you to the people of Reggio Emilia for welcoming me into a culture of care with such warmth and generosity.
Our collective work in early childhood must be to protect and nurture the connections that form the foundations of life-long wellbeing.
Grazie di cuore,
C
