Prince William set to mark Diana's birthday with powerful tribute

Prince William is set to honour his mother, Princess Diana, by marking the second anniversary of his Homewards initiative on what would have been her 64th birthday, July 1.

The Prince of Wales is set to visit Sheffield to highlight progress in his campaign to end homelessness, a cause the former Princess of Wales championed during her lifetime.

According to People Magazine, William has helped launch over 100 projects across six UK regions and recently secured over $50 million in funding to support housing development.

In an open letter, the Prince praised the ongoing efforts and urged communities to stay focused.

"Your experiences are what makes Homewards unique and powerful," the future King wrote in his letter.

He added, “We have the ability to harness our collective capabilities, expertise, and resources towards this common cause.

“I am immensely proud to say that your collective effort has already allowed us to achieve lasting impact."

"I am confident we can lead and inspire understanding, empathy and optimism that homelessness can be ended," William continued.

"Focus is also important, and you have identified the groups particularly at risk of homelessness in your locations to drive solutions that show it is possible to prevent their homelessness."

"While visiting the six locations, I have been inspired by the motivation, creativity, and expertise that is embodied in each location and the tangible difference you are making for some of society’s most vulnerable."

Before signing off, William penned, "Keep going!"
