Kate visited the Foundling Museum, an institution that explores the history of the Foundling Hospital—the UK’s first children’s charity. The hospital cared for and educated around 25,000 children who were abandoned, usually as babies.

The pioneering institution was established in 18th century London. Today, the museum showcases a diverse collection of art, artifacts, and archival material, offering visitors a glimpse into the lives of abandoned and vulnerable children, as well as the courageous efforts made to provide them with care and support.

The museum also has a profound commitment to social welfare and provides resources and support for young people, including training opportunities, mentorship programs, and collaborative projects guided by established artists, writers, and musicians.
