LONDON - Prince William has launched an ambitious five-year project which seeks to end homelessness in Britain on Monday, saying it was a “big task”. Prince William, 41, the eldest son of King Charles and the heir to the throne, has long been a supporter of charities...
“It’s a big task, but I firmly believe that by working together it is possible to make homelessness rare, brief, and unrepeated.”
According to the Foundation, more than 300,000 people, half of whom are children, are either sleeping rough or in cars, living in temporary accommodation, hostels or with relatives. The programme, described as “a massive moment for the prince”, by his spokesman, is Prince William’s most significant project since he became Prince of Wales following the death of his grandmother Queen Elizabeth last September.
