Kate Middleton has announced the launch of a new campaign to raise awareness of the critical importance of the early years of a child's life.

The campaign, which will be conducted under the auspices of the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood, aims to draw attention to the rapid development of the brain during the first five years of life and the impact that experiences, relationships, and surroundings during this period have on shaping the adults we become.


In a letter released on Saturday, the Princess of Wales stated that "as a society, we currently spend much more of our time and energy on later life," and expressed her determination to change that through this long-term campaign.

She will be joined by a distinguished group of experts spanning science, research, policymaking, and front-line practice, as well as well-known figures from the fields of music, sport, and television, to demonstrate why the early years are of such importance and why it is in the interest of society as a whole to care about this.

Kate urged everyone to take the opportunity to learn more about the incredible time of life represented by the early years, to reflect on their own childhoods and how they shaped them, and to consider what they can do to make the world a more supportive and loving place for children. She stated that "healthy, happy children shape a healthy, happy future."

A spokesperson for Kensington Palace stated that the Princess has taken an active role in every stage of this campaign and that it is very much the start of her work in this area and will be a key focus of her work way beyond the next week.

The campaign is similar in nature to the Royal Foundation's Heads Together campaign, which focused on creating "an openness to talk about mental health."
