The Duchess of Edinburgh joined The Long Walk in Windsor as part of BBC Children in Need and The One Show’s fundraiser, The Challenge Squad.
She teamed up with Emily, a young person with cerebral palsy, who was not aware that the Duchess was joining her. The 21-year-old Emily from London uses a wheelchair and walking sticks and was on the penultimate stretch of her walk to Windsor Castle.
A Royal surprise! ✨
