Amanda Berry, Chief Executive of The Royal Foundation of The Prince and Princess of Wales said ahead of this morning's pivotal meeting: "We all have a role to play in building a supportive and nurturing world around children and those who care for them, and it is fantastic to see business leaders placing the subject of early childhood at the heart of their organisations.
"Businesses play a key role within society and with their huge reach to their employees, consumer and the wider community, their involvement can have a transformative impact on the health and happiness of generations to come."
NatWest Group Chief Executive, Dame Alison Rose, added: "I am delighted to welcome Her Royal Highness, The Princess of Wales, and leaders from a wide range of sectors to our headquarters for the inaugural meeting of the Business Taskforce for Early Childhood.
"This is a critical issue for the future growth and success of our businesses, our economy and our society.
"As business leaders, we have an important responsibility to the colleagues, customers and communities we serve.
"This Taskforce can deliver positive change by bringing together a wealth of experience across the private sector to help provide the support and resources that young children and their carers need to thrive."
Spearheaded by the Princess, 'Shaping Us' aims to "increase public understanding of the crucial importance of the first five years of a child’s life."
With the help of high-profile figures and experts, Her Royal Highness hopes her new long-term public awareness campaign can make a positive difference for many generations.
