Prince George joined his father, the Prince of Wales, on a visit to a homelessness project to help with Christmas lunch preparations in London.
Prince William took his son to the Passage Charity in central London, more than 30 years after he first visited with his mother, Diana the Princess of Wales.
The father and son donned aprons as William poured brussels sprouts on to an oven dish and George laid yorkshire puddings out on to a tray before cooking.
In a video posted to the Prince and Princess of Wales’s YouTube account on Saturday, William and his eldest child, 12, were seen chatting to guests, decorating a Christmas tree and helping to lay the table.
A post on the Prince and Princess of Wales’s X account said: “Proud to join volunteers and staff at The Passage in preparing Christmas lunch – this year with another pair of helping hands.”
In the footage, William, 43, rubbed the Passage’s head chef Claudette Hawkins’ shoulders and George laughed as he helped prepare other vegetables for the roast dinner.
Visiting the shelter in Victoria during the Christmas period has become a tradition for the Prince of Wales, after he also helped out in 2023 and 2024. His first visit in 1993 came as an 11-year-old.
William is the charity’s royal patron and with his own Homewards project he aims to help eradicate homelessness in all its forms.
Last year, he told the ITV1 documentary Prince William: We Can End Homelessness how his first visit to The Passage had affected him.
He said: “I remember at the time kind of thinking, well, if everyone’s not got a home, they’re all going to be really sad.
“But it was incredible how happy an environment it was.
“I remember having some good conversations just playing chess and chatting. That’s when it dawned on me that there are other people out there who don’t have the same life as you do.
“When you’re quite small, you don’t really, you just think life is what you see in front of you and you don’t really have the concept to look elsewhere and it’s when you meet people, I did then, who put a different perspective in your head and say like, ‘well, I was a living on the street last night’, and you’re like ‘woah’, you know.”
