HRH The Duchess of Edinburgh visits Disability Initiative

I had the honour of welcoming HRH The Duchess of Edinburgh to Camberley this week as she visited Disability Initiative – a charity she has been Patron of since 2003 and is a regular visitor. During her visit to the resource centre, she learned about the Charity’s ADEPT Project which was made possible through the support of the National Lottery Community Fund. The Duchess then joined in making festive Mince Pies, singing Carols and took part in a Christmas scene painting activity and a quiz!

Whilst there I also took part in the activities, though I fear my attempts at cooking and painting were not quite to the high standard attained by Her Royal Highness who does have a lot more experience in these matters.

Established in 1975 the charity strives to empower adults with disabilities towards their personal goals, through specialised tailored services, delivering high-quality care and slow stream rehabilitation while respecting personal choice, dignity, and freedom.
