The gathering represents a significant milestone for the organisation, uniting those who have contributed to its mission of supporting disadvantaged young people.
Originally established in 1976 by His Majesty when he was Prince of Wales, the charity was previously known as The Prince’s Trust.
The organisation’s core mission centres on ensuring every young person can succeed regardless of their circumstances or obstacles they encounter.
By helping those from disadvantaged backgrounds develop essential life skills and access employment opportunities, the Trust has supported more than one million young people across the United Kingdom.
Over the past five years, three quarters of participants have progressed into work, education or training.
To further commemorate this golden anniversary, a Garden Party will take place at Buckingham Palace on 14th May with His Majesty’s permission.
