Last year, the couple also helped pull together a group of charities to provide mental health support to people working on the frontlines during the pandemic.
“Our Frontline” provided one-to-one support and online help to assist frontline workers in getting the mental health relief that they needed as they tackled difficult and often-harrowing cases.
“The Duke and Duchess have been hearing from representatives of mental health organizations and talking with frontline workers and hospital staff about what they need and are committed to do what they can to support the mental health charities,” a royal source told PEOPLE at the time. “Both of them have been instrumental in convening the sector and helping bring partners together.”
The Royal Foundation, which William heads along with wife, has a long history of raising awareness of the importance of mental health and one ofits key initiative – Heads Together– is considered one of the most successful campaigns of its type ever in the U.K.
