The Prince and Princess of Wales have visited the Natural History Museum’s newly transformed gardens in London.
William and Catherine visited the museum’s new gardens, which opened in 2024, to see how it’s working with conservation and research biodiversity projects.
They met with school children from Lewisham in the rain for a pond dipping session before joining children from Manchester to learn about new habitats on their school grounds. The latter was made possible by the National Education Nature Park programme.

According to Kensington Palace, “The gardens and National Education Nature Park programme are part of the Natural History Museum’s ambitious Urban Nature Movement, an initiative which aims to help people feel more connected to nature, more confident in their ability to protect it and more invested in a greener future.”
Their Royal Highnesses are passionate about protecting the environment – William through his Earthshot Prize and Catherine with her “Mother Nature” project.
The Princess of Wales is the patron of the Natural History Museum.
