Princess Kate met with "Dadvengers" today, a community for dads and their children, in Arnos Grove, north London.
The Princess of Wales wanted to highlight the important role that dads play in their children's earliest years, as part of her Shaping Us campaign on early childhood.
Dadvengers is predominately an online community which works to support dads on their journey through parenthood.
It has a strong focus on mental wellbeing and supports new fathers in a variety of ways including through online training programmes, podcasts, and in-person "Dad Walks".

For today's outing, the mother-of-three looked lovely in high-waisted jeans, her £200 khaki Barbour jacket and a Breton-striped top.

The top was Kate's £725 Erdem "Lotus" striped cashmere jumper, which is sadly no longer in stock.
The princess looked appropriately autumnal wearing Blundstone Chelsea boots.
These shoes cost a whopping $229.95 (£189).
To accessorise, Kate wore some delicate gold hoops.

Nigel Clarke, the founder of Dadvengers, said: "Fathers have a hugely significant role to play in their children's lives, right from the start.
"Even before their baby is born, fathers can get involved and Dadvengers is on a mission to support them to do that in ways that work for them.
"We provide them with information and advice to help look after their own well-being, while also supporting them to build the nurturing relationships and surroundings we know are so important in the very earliest years of their children's lives.
"It's what Dadvengers is all about."
