Harry And Meghan To Visit UK Next Month For Charity Events

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are due to visit the UK next month to "support several charities close to their hearts".

Their visit will be the first time they have been back in the country since the Platinum Jubilee celebrations in early June.

The couple, who moved to Montecito, California, after stepping back from royal duties, will travel to Manchester on 5 September for the One Young World Summit.

The event gives young leaders from more than 190 countries the chance to "harness the knowledge and skills needed" to "accelerate" social impact.

The duchess is a counsellor for the organisation, alongside Justin Trudeau, Sir Richard Branson and Jamie Oliver, among others.

Organisers say the summit is the "beating heart of what we are about" and a chance for individuals to "confront the biggest challenges facing humanity".

Harry and Meghan will also visit Germany for the Invictus Games Dusseldorf 2023 One Year To Go event.

They will then return to the UK for the WellChild Awards on 8 September, which "celebrates the inspirational qualities" of seriously ill children and young people.

A spokesperson for the couple said:

"Prince Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are delighted to visit with several charities close to their hearts in early September."
