Prince William thanks delighted schoolboy for his letter on surprise visit
The Prince of Wales left a boy speechless when he made a surprise visit to the youngster’s school after the pupil requested he come and learn about their mental health campaign.
William walked up to Freddie Hadley at St Michael’s Church of England High School in Sandwell, West Midlands, and shook hands when he arrived unannounced and left the 12-year-old grinning and later confidently telling the future king he expected him to turn up.
The prince had replied to the schoolboy’s letter on social media in October last year apologising for not attending, but telling the Year 8 pupil to “please keep up this important work” helping to combat the stigma around mental health.
