The Daily Telegraph can disclose that the brothers have invested a substantial six figure sum of their own personal fortune into the Charitable Foundation of Prince William and Prince Harry.

The foundation will generate millions of pounds to support injured and psychologically damaged veterans of the Armed Forces.

It will also give money to needy young people and will provide financial support for poverty stricken villages in Africa. The money will be raised from private benefactors and fund-raising.

The Prince of Wales has given his blessing to his sons stepping out on their own together for the first time. The Queen’s enthusiastic support is underlined by the fact that Lord Janvrin, her former private secretary who was her most trusted adviser, is to be chairman of the trustees.
