Prince William, dressed in a red hawker vest, baseball cap and official certification on his chest, sold the magazine Big Issue with homeless people at Sainsbury's Local, a Victorian supermarket 10 minutes' walk from Buckingham Palace, according to the British "Mirror" reported on June 20. Most of the magazine's salespeople are homeless, in debt or unable to find work for long periods of time.
In order to get up close and personal with the future monarch, people lined up to buy magazines, and the amount that had been sold out by the tramp in a week was sold out in less than an hour, and it seems that William's influence is still leveraged. Perhaps many people think that the prince's entry into the grassroots is quite a strong suspicion of "putting on a show", but this is inseparable from the British elite education has been instilling the concept of giving back to society.
In fact, this is not the first time that Prince William has "micro-service private visits". As early as he was 27 years old, he went to the streets and slept with the wanderers for one night. William said that seeing that he is also forty years old this month, he will do more meaningful things to celebrate his birthday. To that end, he wrote an article and was interviewed by Big Issue magazine, vowing to continue to focus on the issue.
In the interview, he talked about the late Princess Diana, "When I was 11 years old, when I was taken to the Homeless, it sowed the seeds of kindness for me. In the years to come, I also hope to get George, Charlotte, and Louis to see these amazing organizations doing inspiring work and supporting those most in need — just as my mother did for me. ”
According to the Daily Mail, william has been a patron of the Vagrant charity CenterPoint and Passage since 2005. He secretly visits the accommodation service operated by CentrePoint as many as 6 times a year. The agency's chief executive, Seye Obakin, told the media that on one occasion William spent an entire week at work at the agency, making frequent phone calls to the welfare office to help a young man.
"When someone says he looks like a celebrity, William will reply that it's just like that and then keep working, he's always doing his thing in such a low profile that only the manager knows who he is." Sey Obakin spoke highly of it. As a prince and aristocrat, William had no lofty posture, no erosion and extravagant life, and had a warm excellent character and charm. It is no wonder that William was able to be appreciated by Princess Kate, and his popularity became higher and higher, and he was deeply loved by the people.
