HRH The Duchess of Gloucester GCVO

Royal Patron
The Village School and Duchess of Gloucester

SeeAbility is extremely proud to have had HRH The Duchess of Gloucester as our Patron, since 1996.  

The Duchess has supported many events, including hosting an event for SeeAbility in the State Apartments at Kensington Palace in 2005.

The Duchess also attended the 10th Anniversary of Heather House and shared the following words with guests present:

"Over the years I have been privileged to visit many of SeeAbility's excellent facilities and I had the pleasure of being present for the tenth anniversary of Heather House in Tadley. The dedication of the staff and the many volunteers, and of families of those benefitting from SeeAbility's support, is always paramount and so uplifting to experience."

More recently HRH has visited SeeAbility to support our Children in Focus sight testing project and opened an extension to our Fir Tree Lodge service in Tadley.
