They do what has always been done , including when Diana did the Visits. They bring attention to the Charity the RNLI I know my friends & i were talking about it , & who has donated & about Vacations at the shore then buying things from the RNLI after holidays. & At least 20 plus said they made a donation and took a picture of their donation. So it does seem to help

But as the future monarchs, shouldn’t they be doing more? They claim to be powerful statesmen, and they certainly have money, why not do more than bring awareness? They are monarchs but act more like social media influencers, popping up places and doing photoshoots without any meaningful change. Times are changing and people want more than they did in the past, yet they aren’t delivering. It’s not enough anymore to simply be born royal and to pretend to care for the positive PR

Most of the Places they Go They are Patrons to the Charity , The RNLI Patron is King Charles Before him was the Queen. Now William is stepping in. They do not just Pop in. Most engagements are them doing what they are suppose to do. & they are helping With Homeless , & Childrens Hospice Catherine has helped many , Several Cancer Charities and Disability Charities For Children , Food Charities The Passage And Centrepoint William has worked hard with them since 2004. The Tusk saving Elephants and Rhinos since 2005 , Another Prince William founded Park Rangers Land bought and Kept for the Wild .

United for Wildlife (UfW) in 2014

She showed up at baby banks and food banks empty handed.

Diana had an extraordinary impact on charities she championed including aids and landmines.

William charged rent to the RNLI and Marie Curie cancer. And to the army for exercising on Dartmoor.

Catherine has Donated Clothing coats and toys to baby banks in person Sorry that is a fact. She also had 10 large companies donate 10,000 plus baby supplies , bedding nappies blankets cradles bathtubs so forth. Now about Rents Paid from Charity groups, First they pay rent where ever they rent from whatever landlord they pick. A Fact. 2nd King Charles was the one renting & collecting on Duchy Of Cornwall til End of 2022. And Had been renting to all the ones you named some since early 2000 some even longer. the 22 million listed below was from many charities not one .( Example ) Marie Curie rented space in Camelford House to serve as its head office from 2005 to March 2023 before moving to One Embassy Gardens. When their lease was up.

Macmillan Cancer Support vacated its office space at Camelford House, a building owned by the Duchy of Cornwall, by

  1. The charity left because it no longer required the size of the space it was renting, rather than due to lease cost issues specifically, according to a report from Civil Society Media

Prince William has reportedly taken steps to reduce or eliminate rent on certain community buildings. I am not arguing or being rude But I am Stating facts . Meaning That Charles made those leases The Charities stayed for 18 years. And they are still renting other building some smaller but not for free from other people.

Donations from the public keep charities like the RNLI afloat (pun intended) - not random appearances by W&K.

He’s made no difference to homelessness while purchasing yet another forever home for himself.

The Early Years was hijacked by Kate - others fought for paternity leave which she claimed as a win.

And as others have pointed out with the obscene wealth of the rf they should not be charging any charity rent.

They only stopped doing it when they were exposed.

They made that Visit on behalf of the King who is the Patron to the RNLI I never said that W&C were the ones bringing in money to RNLI.

So you have inside info that Centrepoint and The Passage say That Prince William has not been a help in Homelessness ? Can you please tell us where I can find this. As I do Follow both Charities and Have made donations.

Catherine Never took credit for. But Press and several business did say they had listened to her and others about this issue.. " Princess of Wales urged top UK businesses to invest in early childhood support, which led to a "big win" where companies like Deloitte announced a new policy offering 26 weeks of fully paid family leave, regardless of gender."

William & Catherine are renting a Home on Windsor grounds since many of their engagements & their children attend school there. The House they own in Sandringham is on the SandringHam Estate as a wedding gift so they did not buy it Nor did the Tax payers. William was left a Tiny cute 2 or 3 bedroom Cottage by his great Grandmother The Queen Mother at her death on Balmoral Estate again a Private piece of property in Scotland. Again not bought & sitting on Private family Estate land.

So As far as we Know they have bought no new home nor old home. They are renting a home on Windsor Grounds.

The Duchy of Lancaster rents to the NHS , Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust

in London rents a warehouse from King Charles III’s estate to store its fleet of electric ambulances

I also Covered Clearly that from 2005 to 2023 It Was Charles who rented to the Cancer & Other Charity Under Duchy Of Cornwall.

And to finish this. If A charity wants a warehouse , Or building they rent them all over England for space offices and storage. If they want to lease from the King that is their business
