Buckingham Palace has announced that Prince William is now officially the head of Fauna and Flora International and the British Trust for Ornithology.
The decision to honor William acknowledges his conservation work, recently enhanced by the Earthshot Prize initiative. So, to honor Harry Her Majesty would hand him a mirror?
The Queen And Prince Philip Pay Homage To Prince William By Delivering Two Favored Patronages
A palace statement read: “Today The Duke of Cambridge has become Patron of two wildlife conservation charities, handed to His Royal Highness by The Queen and The Duke of Edinburgh.”
“The new patronages … align with The Duke of Cambridge’s longstanding work around conservation and support for communities protecting their natural environment for future generations.”
The queen became a patron of the Fauna and Flora International, the world’s oldest international wildlife conservation charity, nearly 70 years ago.
The group protects threatened species and ecosystems, chooses solutions that are sustainable and enhance human wellbeing, and is active in 40 countries.
Its Chief Executive Officer Mark Rose, said, “Her Majesty has provided stalwart support to FFI and we are extremely grateful for the sterling support and encouragement that she has provided throughout the past seven decades.”
He was thrilled to have William take over her role saying, “We look forward to building on her legacy and taking the relationship forward with her grandson. The Duke of Cambridge is a wonderful ambassador for conservation and there is a great deal of synergy between his own and FFI’s vision for the future of the planet.”
Prince William Has Been Recognized With High Honors
Prince Philip has represented the British Trust for Ornithology for 30 years. The Chief Executive of the group, Andy Clements, was similarly pleased to hear the news that William would now be taking over.
He said, “I am delighted that the Duke of Cambridge has become our patron, following on from his grandfather who worked so tirelessly on our behalf. We hope that we will be able to support The Duke’s strong interest in protecting the environment through our evidence-based work around environmental issues in the UK.”
