In his statement on their official website, he said: "Anyone who has experienced the loss of a loved one will know only too well that you never stop grieving for those you have loved, and how important it is to find a way to live with that loss.

"Child Bereavement UK has been helping families facing that journey since 1994 and that is why I have been very proud to work with this incredible charity as its Patron since 2009."
Having lost his mother, Princess Diana, when he was just 15, it is no surprise the Prince is passionate about the important cause.
William's solo outing comes just days after the Prince and Princess were spotted enjoying a secret lunch date in Windsor on Thursday afternoon.
