Royal Family News – Prince William – Now Hiring
Royal Family News reveals that, per Express UK, the royal couple’s Royal Foundation is seeking to fill the top spot for their new program focusing on homelessness. The Prince and Princess of Wales are expected to launch the “major new flagship initiative” in the Spring of 2023. The initiative’s focus will reportedly be to target homelessness.
Using the Royal Foundation, the prince and princess are set to run the program, focusing their work on supporting homeless people, something Prince William holds dear. The initiative, described as “bold and ambitious,” has yet to be announced. However, The Royal Foundation ran a job advertisement looking for something to take on the role of leading the project.
Initiative Non-Disclosure
Per the ad, titled “Head of Homelessness Programme,” the person they seek will run the project supporting a “multi-location collaborative effort to demonstrate that it is possible to deliver lasting change to tackle homelessness.”
There seems to be some secrecy surrounding the program as potential candidates will be required to sign a non-disclosure agreement before receiving further details. The ad says that potential candidates should possess “excellent political judgment and risk awareness” and could receive as much as $98,313 (£85,000) a year.
Prince William – Spends Cold Night On London Streets
The prince once visited a homeless shelter with his mother Princess Diana, when he was just 11 years of age. Since then, he has reportedly maintained a determination to follow in his mother’s footsteps – continue her work. His first patronage was for Centrepoint, an organization whose purview involved supporting homeless people.
Prince William takes his work so seriously, in fact, he spent a night sleeping on the streets of London in December of 2009 in order to more deeply understand the challenges faced by the homeless. The temperatures at the time were reportedly as low as negative 4C.
Prince William – Moved by Homelessness At Young age
According to Hello!, after the experience the prince reportedly said “I was very struck by the people I met and what they were struggling with – sleeping rough, sofa surfing, not having basic comforts a lot of us take for granted.
“That really struck me at a young age, bearing in mind the gulf for me, growing up in a palace, and seeing the other end of the spectrum where others were faced with huge personal challenges and were overcoming them. That was powerful to see at a young age.” Be sure and stay up to speed on all royally related stories. Return here often for more Royal Family news and updates.
