Prince William is in the West Midlands today where he is carrying out a series of engagements and visiting projects that are supporting people's mental health and wellbeing
Prince William has surprised children by dropping by their school after they sent him an invitation which he initially had to turn down.
Back in October to mark World Mental Health Day, pupil Freddie Hadley sent a personal letter to William inviting him to the school after informing him about the Matrix Project. In the letter, Freddie explained that it saw a group of 11 to 14-year-old boys meet every week to develop ideas and projects to shine a spotlight on male mental health.
On arrival, William congratulated Freddie for his work and sending him a letter and told him: "Well done you, I'm here now. Your letter worked. I'm sorry I couldn't come to you in October." Today's engagements in the West Midlands mark the second public outings for William since wife Kate revealed her cancer diagnosis and treatment before Easter. Last week, he returned to duties and gave a helping hand loading food and cooking in the kitchen at food distribution charity Surplus to Supper, in Sunbury-on-Thames, Surrey.
