Queen of Compassion

• Comments came during discussion with volunteers and congregation members
• On visit to Swansea church, she spoke of the importance of community services
• It was her and husband William's first visit to Wales since taking on the new titles

The Popular Princess of Wales made a rare foray into politics as she spoke of
the need for food banks as some of families struggle with the cost-of-living
crisis.

Kate made the comments about the importance of community services
during a discussion with volunteers and members of the congregation at St
Thomas Church in Swansea - her first visit to Wales since inheriting her new
title.

Over the last two years the church has been transformed into a community
hub, which includes a food bank, facilities for homeless people, and a not-
for-profit café and community training kitchen.

During the visit with husband William, Kate said: 'With the cost of living
crisis, there are a lot of desperate people out there.'

'We need places like this to bring people together, places where people can
come and engage. It's what we need post Covid and with the cost of living
crisis.
