Kate Middleton opens new charity with a personal handwritten message

Princess of Wales Kate Middleton has officially opened a new charity in Southampton with a personal handwritten message to the women in the justice system.

The new charity centre is founded by her friend Lady Edwina Grosvenor.

Kate Middleton took to Instagram and shared stunning photos after she officially opened the Hope Street Centre.

The new centre is part of Kate Middleton’s Shaping Us campaign.

She posted the photos and the note with caption, “Reflecting on an insightful morning at @hopestreet_ost learning how the experience of women and their children in the justice system is being transformed.

“A new facility, designed by and for women, provides safe accommodation and a compassionate approach to prevent trauma faced by mothers being separated from their children.”

In her handwritten note, Kate Middleton says: “I see you and I am with you. Good luck in all that lies ahead. Catherine."
