”Part 1”

『McLaren Automotive’s new Composites Technology Centre』

The new McLaren Composites Technology Centre will be used to innovate the process of designing and constructing lightweight carbon fibre ‘tubs’, which form the internal shell of all McLaren cars. Rotherham Biz reports: "A £50m investment has been made in developing and manufacturing the future of lightweighting technology with the soon to-open facility on the Advanced Manufacturing Park (AMP) in Rotherham. It is the supercar manufacturer's second only production facility and the first outside its native Woking. McLaren recently took the keys for the new 75,000 sq ft facility that will enable the development and manufacture of the Monocell and Monocage carbon fibre chassis used in future McLaren models."

met those working in the factory and heard about plans for the centre’s expansion that will provide 200 new jobs for the local area.

Some of McLaren’s STEM Ambassadors were present at the event and spoke to the Duke and Duchess about their work encouraging children to get involved in science-based learning and careers.

”Part ２”

in Barnsley
where they visited one of Centrepoint’s services,
which supports over 60 homeless young people from the local area every day.

Last year 7,000 young people in Yorkshire and the Humber approached their local authority because they were homeless or at risk

In Barnsley, Centrepoint is working to provide these young people with accommodation and support to get them back into education, training and employment

William and Kate helped prepare lunch in the kitchen before sitting down with residents to talk about their experiences.

---------------------------------------------

Centrepoint
is the UK's leading charity for homeless young people. Together with their partners, they support 10,000 young people every year. They help 16 to 25-year-olds into a safe place to live, give them a health assessment and plan support for their individual mental and physical health needs. From there, the focus is on assisting them in gaining independence and employment.

William has been patron of Centrepoint since 2005. The charity holds a special place in his heart; as children William and Harry paid private visits with their mother who was patron from 1992 until her death. To highlight the issue of homelessness the Prince spent a night on the streets in 2009. To mark 40 years of the charity, William made a speech at a celebratory event in 2008. He recalled the days he visited with the late Princess of Wales: "That example of selfless service that Centrepoint represents has stayed with me, and that is why it was the first charity that I wanted to be associated with.’ He also said he had witnessed, first hand, ‘the extraordinary courage of so many of Centrepoint’s young people in rising to meet such seemingly insurmountable challenges in their lives."

”キャサリン妃のジョーク”

Whilst cutting the bread, Kate joked:
"Don't look at how evenly I cut it!"

”ウィリアム王子＆キャサリン妃のジョーク”

'At the charity’s hostel — which serves 60 young people from the area — William and Kate helped prepare lunch by stirring Omero’s Red Pepper and Chorizo soup and cutting bread.

The soup was the winning recipe in the “Big Broth” project, which raises money for Centrepoint through grocery sales. William then took a tray and gingerly walked into a second kitchen to sit down with two young people who’ve been helped by Centrepoint and two staffers for a bite to eat.

“I’m doing my balancing-the-soup act,” the royal dad joked as he moved down the right corridor. “Sorry to keep you waiting for your lunch — we’ve been talking too much as usual.”

As they sat down, William tried to put his neighbors at ease by noting,
“This is not your usual lunch.”
Added Kate: “I think I cut some rather big slices.” “Don’t be put off by the size of Catherine’s bread,” William countered. “They’re enough to wedge the door.”

After lunch, the Duke and Duchess visited Centrepoint’s new Andy Norman Learning Hub. The hub has been built to provide a dedicated space and resources for young people at risk of homelessness in Barnsley, which will enable them to improve their skills and move towards independence

《チャールズ皇太子 BDディナーパーティー @ バッキンガムパレス》

11 / 14 (水)

-----------------------------------------------

＠ Spencer House

in St James Palace

「もう少し(公務の)ペースを落とすことはお考えですか？」「どうだろうね、見ていればわかると思うけど、きっとそうなるだだろうね」

しかしそれにツッコミを入れたのはカミラ夫人

「どうだかね」さすがよくお判りのようです。。

Earlier in the day Charles arrived at a tea party with fellow septuagenarians, where he hinted he may start slowing down.

The Prince of Wales was given a balloon by reporters waiting to greet him as he arrived to host the tea party for volunteers with Camilla at St James’ Palace.

When asked by ITV News whether he had plans to "slow down", Charles said "you may see it slowly but surely".

But Camilla disagreed, adding "I doubt it".

Asked how he was feeling, Charles replied "older".

He joked: "I'm not sure. It's rather like indigestion. 'Many happy returns; is not quite the same thing as you get older."

The tea party was hosted by Charles and Camilla for 70 other people who were born in the same year - 1948.

The 70-year-olds were nominated by the charity Age UK for giving their time to their local communities.

Most were volunteers who give service to charities of which Charles and Camilla are patrons, like Bernardo’s and The Prince’s Trust.

女王は、息子に対し

レアなコメントもされたそう

これもセンスありまくり❤️

Her Majesty paid tribute to her son and heir in an incredibly heartfelt and touching speech:

“It is a privilege for any mother to be able to propose a toast to her son on his 70th birthday. It means that you have lived long enough to see your child grow up. It is rather like - to use an analogy I am certain will find favour - planting a tree and being able to watch it grow. My mother saw me turn 70, of course. And she was heard to observe that 70 is exactly the age when the number of candles on your cake finally exceeds the amount of breath you have to blow them out.

"Over his 70 years, Philip and I have seen Charles become a champion of conservation and the arts, a great charitable leader - a dedicated and respected heir to the throne, to stand comparison with any in history - and a wonderful father.

"Most of all, sustained by his wife Camilla, he is his own man, passionate and creative. So this toast is to wish a Happy Birthday to my son, in every respect a Duchy original.

– THE QUEEN
