Plan International UK responds to news of the death of charity patron, HRH Prince Philip

Rose Caldwell, CEO of Plan International UK says: ‘We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of His Royal Highness, the Duke of Edinburgh, who has been a long standing royal patron of Plan International UK. 

“Over the years, His Royal Highness has been incredibly supportive of the work we do with young people both here in the UK and across the world. As a global children’s charity striving to give every child the same chance in life, his support has been hugely appreciated.  

“Our thoughts are with Her Majesty The Queen and the Royal Family at this difficult time.”
