Melania Trump and Kate Middleton will join forces on September 18 at Frogmore Gardens for a special engagement aimed at promoting children’s wellness and appreciation for nature. This event marks a significant moment during President Donald Trump’s historic state visit to the United Kingdom, highlighting both women’s commitment to nurturing the next generation.
Joining us will be Melania Trump, former First Lady of the United States, who will deliver special gifts to the Scouts. She will take with her honey made from the White House apiary and Scouting America neckerchiefs. This simple gesture speaks volumes about her long-time dedication to helping children thrive. During her husband’s first term, she launched the Be Best initiative. The Speak Up, Stay Safe initiative is focused on the health and well-being of children around the world, starting with their physical and emotional health.
“The First Lady cares about the wellness and well-being of children worldwide,” stated her office. FLOTUS Melania Trump has talked about the importance of outdoor experiences. One such initiative, the Every Kid Outdoors Program, introduces children to the outdoors and encourages them to embrace nature.
Since 2017, Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, has acted as the joint president of the Scout Association. Famed for her well-documented passion for the outdoors, most recently she referred to nature as her “sanctuary.” In a recent video interview with Chief Scout Dwayne Fields, she noted how important it is to connect with nature. This reflects her commitment to inspire children’s love for the natural world.
On September 18, Kate Middleton will participate in leaf stamping and bug house identification activities with children aged 4 to 6 from the Scout’s Squirrels program. This fun and interactive experience will allow our soon-to-be-Scouts earn their “Go Wild” badge. It will teach them to love our fragile planet, too.
Melania Trump’s joint appearance with Kate Middleton is seen as the high point of her otherwise troubled trip so far. The two women met for the first time at Windsor Castle, in the company of President Donald Trump and the Prince of Wales. First lady Melania Trump expressed her enthusiasm for the event. She says it is “absolutely” a key focus of her agenda as part of this state visit.
“It’s something that Mrs. Trump demonstrated in the first term and wants to continue to enhance in the second term,” noted her office. This lovely expression of Melania Trump’s enduring love for children, interest in joining with other efforts to foster a healthy, productive life.
Both women are looking forward to inspiring future generations of Scouts at the Frogmore Gardens. Their partnership embodies a common goal to inspire young people by getting them active outdoors and improving their health.
