The Duchess of Edinburgh is preparing for a busy week of royal duties for charity.
On March 17, the Duchess will join her husband, Prince Edward, Duke of Edinburgh, to officially open the African Forest Habitat at Bristol Zoo.
The project focuses on the conservation and protection of endangered wildlife, offers educational opportunities for visitors and raises awareness of global environmental issues.
Later in the evening, Sophie will attend the Peggy Hawkins Gala at The Place in London, lending her support to arts and community initiatives.
The event will bring together artists, philanthropists and community leaders to celebrate creativity and local projects.
On Wednesday March 18, the Duchess may accompany Prince Edward to Nigeria’s state visit, although official details are yet to be confirmed.
The couple could attend official lunches, exhibitions and possibly the State Banquet, providing a platform to strengthen relations and celebrate Nigerian culture with British officials.
Recently, she traveled to New York to participate in the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women.
During the visit, Sophie carried a message from King Charles, conveying the King’s goodwill to American officials.
