The Duke reportedly made three secret visits to The Passage’s Resource Centre in Westminster, where he volunteered to pack food, prepare hot meals for those in emergency accommodation and talk to residents. He also visited Passage House Assessment Centre in Pimlico, and Montfort House in Bethnal Green.
It isn’t the first time that he has visited the centre. His first visit was as a child with his mother, the late Princess Diana, in 1993, and he has been back a number of times since. The Prince has previously said the charity left a ‘deep and lasting impression’ on him.
It’s thought he has visited the centre multiple times over the years with and without publicity, including Passage House Assessment Centre in Pimlico and Montfort House in Bethnal Green.
Whilst there, he shadowed other volunteers and helped to prepare hot meals for those in need while spreading some of his regal charm.
The father-of-three has previously spoken about his involvement in the scheme and what it meant to him. In 2016 he said: “The visits I made as a child to this place left a deep and lasting impression upon me.
