Duchess Catherine
The 35-year-old royal will visit two Action for Children projects in Torfaen and Caerphilly in Wales to see first hand how the charity helps vulnerable young people in the UK.
Action for Children's chief executive Sir Tony Hawkhead said: "We are thrilled to welcome Her Royal Highness back to Action for Children, now as our new Royal Patron, and introduce The Duchess to the specialised work we do with families in Torfaen and Caerphilly to develop emotional wellbeing in children and give them the confidence and self-belief to fulfil their potential.
"We are very grateful to Her Royal Highness for her continued interest in the vital work we do, not just in Wales, but at our 600 services across the UK. It is challenging work but our passionate and dedicated teams make a profound difference to the lives of those who need it most in our communities."
The Duchess of Cambridge - who has Prince George, three, and Princess Charlotte, 21 months, with her husband Prince William - will visit MIST, which is a mental health project that helps children living in care whilst the Duchess will also visit the Caerphilly Family Intervention Team (FIT), which supports children suffering from emotional and behavioural difficulties.
Duchess Catherine and Prince William are big supporters of raising awareness of mental health, with the 34-year-old royal recently urging people to "speak about" mental health.
He said: "Mental health was the great taboo. If you were anxious, it's because you were weak. If you couldn't cope with whatever life threw at you, it's because you were failing. Successful, strong people don't suffer like that, do they? But of course - we all do. It's just that few of us speak about it."
