Prince William and Kate pack groceries on visit to local charity near their new home
The Prince and Princess of Wales took some time out while their three kids were at school on Thursday to visit a local charity.
Prince William and Kate helped sort groceries to make food parcels at Windsor Foodshare, an organisation near their new home of Adelaide Cottage.
The family moved to the royal residence near Windsor Castle last August to be closer to Queen Elizabeth, who died weeks later.

They've since stayed put and are making the area their home, getting out and about in the community.
The royals arrived together, Kate wearing black trousers with a striking fuschia merino wool roll neck knit and a matching long Hobbs pure wool coat over the top.

Prince William opted for a blue suit, shirt and green knit three-piece combo, which we've seen him sport on a number of occasions before.

William and Kate met with the the organisers of the charity, which will mark its 10th anniversary later this year, to hear about the 18 per cent increase in people needing help they've seen in the past year, amid the cost of living crisis.
The prince and princess then helped volunteers sort out food donations and prepare packages for the charity's clients to collect later in the day.

In 2022, the charity helped feed more than 7000 local residents, which meant on average 150 people received parcels from Windsor Foodshare each week.
The weekly food parcels include tinned items, bread, eggs, fresh fruit and vegetables.
They're given out to any local household where there's a likelihood of an individual or family going hungry due to a lack of funds.
Toiletries and cleaning products are also provided on a monthly basis.
