During the visit, Their Royal Highnesses are expected to meet and interact with various organizations that benefit from the funding and support young people with their mental health.

They’ll also see firsthand how Scarborough community organizations come together to help those struggling with the rising cost of living.

The Two Ridings Community Foundation addresses issues in North and East Yorkshire, including rural suicide, poverty and child welfare. Since 2000, it has delivered more than £15 million to surrounding communities.

The discussion of mental health has been a major topic for the prince, who has been outspoken on the subject for several years. Earlier this month, the Prince and Princess of Wales presented a mental health special on BBC Radio 1’s Newsbeat with experts and campaigners.
