To highlight the benefits of the great outdoors and inspire children, families and communities to get back to nature, The Duchess of Cambridge, @The_RHS and landscape architects Davies White will design and build the 2019 RHS Garden at #RHSChelsea: bit.ly/2MbJgnl
The garden will build on Her Royal Highness’s passion for the outdoors and the proven benefits that nature has on physical and mental health — The Duchess is a strong advocate for the positive impact that nature and the environment can have on childhood development.
Based on a woodland, the ‘Back to Nature’ Garden seeks to recapture for adults the sense of wonder and magic that they enjoyed as children, in addition to kindling excitement and a passion for nature in future generations.

Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay, a day that we look to raise awareness of mental health around the world.
This #WMHD we are sharing posts and accounts working on mental health issues, along with some useful resources for those that might need support 👇
Heads Together have curated a guide of #WMHD content from the eight @Heads_Together charity partners, filled with their support services, fundraising challenges, important messages and much more.
“Next year the world turns its attention to the International #YearoftheNurseandMidwife, and recognising and celebrating the humbling work that you and your colleagues do day in, day out, to improve the lives of others.” — The Duchess of Cambridge
“You are there for women at their most vulnerable; you witness strength, pain and unimaginable joy on a daily basis.” — The Duchess of Cambridge in her open letter to Midwives #SupportNursesandMidwives
"Our hearts go out to the families and friends of the people who lost their lives in the devastating attack in Christchurch." — The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and The Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
“We have all been fortunate to spend time in Christchurch and have felt the warm, open-hearted and generous spirit that is core to its remarkable people. No person should ever have to fear attending a sacred place of worship.”
“This senseless attack is an affront to the people of Christchurch and New Zealand, and the broader Muslim community. It is a horrifying assault on a way of life that embodies decency, community, and friendship.”
The Duchess of Sussex will become Patron of four organisations that reflect the causes and issues with which she has long been associated including the arts, access to education, support for women and animal welfare.
The National Theatre: The Duchess is a strong believer in using the arts to bring people from different backgrounds and communities together.
@NationalTheatre’s mission is to make world class theatre that’s entertaining, challenging and inspiring – and to make it for everyone.
Association of Commonwealth Universities: Her Royal Highness is a strong advocate of accessible education for all.
@The_ACU is the world's first and oldest international university network, and the only org representing higher education across all 53 Commonwealth countries.
Prince Harry & Ms. Meghan Markle are incredibly grateful for the goodwill they have received since their engagement, & have asked that anyone who might wish to mark the occasion of their wedding considers giving to charity, instead of sending a gift. royal.uk/wedding-charit…
The couple have personally chosen 7 charities which represent a range of issues that they are passionate about, including sport for social change, women's empowerment, conservation, the environment, homelessness, HIV and the Armed Forces.
The charities include @chivaprojects, which supports children growing up with HIV and their families. The charity helps to create a more hopeful and optimistic future for them, ensuring they achieve their greatest potential. chiva.org.uk
