HARRY FOLLOWS IN HER FOOTSTEPS
Like his brother, Harry has taken on Diana's mantle as champion of the rights of the disadvantaged, in particular highlighting the plight of those living with HIV and Aids. He has continued his mother's work in that area through Sentebale, a charity he established in Lesotho to help children orphaned by Aids and other vulnerable young people. "It's a chance to sort of carry on what she left behind," he explains.
The charity, whose name means 'forget me not', was set up in collaboration with the country's Prince Seeiso. "We chose the name as a memorial to the charity work of our own mothers, as well as a reminder to us all not to forget Lesotho or its children," says Harry. Like his mum, Diana's younger son has a winning way with children, making them feel immediately at ease. The young soldier is also patron of WellChild, a charity caring for sick children in the UK, and MapAction, which provides cartographical support to aid agencies in the event of humanitarian disasters.
