Childhood is a time of wonder, curiosity and discovery.
Today, The Princess of Wales has commissioned @Earlychildhood to take forward new work examining how nature can support the healthy development of babies and young children, with a new programme set to launch next year.
Supported by founding partner The Duchy of Cornwall, the work will explore how nature, creativity and relationships can help nurture the social and emotional skills that underpin lifelong health and wellbeing. 🌳

Every day in the UK, around 20 people die by suicide.
Behind every number is a person, a family and people who love them.
If you’re worried about someone, reach out.
Ask how they’re really doing. Listen. Let them know they’re not alone.
One conversation can change everything.

To the firefighters, emergency responders and volunteers battling wildfires across the UK, thank you.
Our thoughts are with everyone affected, particularly those who have lost their homes, and with those working tirelessly to protect communities, homes and the countryside.
