Kate wrote on social media: "Delighted to welcome @DwayneFields as the new UK Chief Scout.

"The Scouts is such an incredible organisation, teaching #SkillsForLife and making a huge difference to young people across the country.

"Looking forward to working with you! C."

Princess Kate was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year and has undergone preventative chemotherapy treatment.

Kate attended the Wimbledon men's singles final with Princess Charlotte and her sister Pippa.

Kate has only made two major public appearance this year with the first coming in June at Trooping the Colour alongside the Royal Family.

The second came a month later at the Wimbledon men's singles final and the royal was joined by her daughter Princess Charlotte and her sister Pippa.

The Princess of Wales's statement comes just a day after Prince William returned to work with his first engagement since the summer holidays.

William visited the Homelessness: Reframed exhibition at Saatchi Gallery which opened on Wednesday, August 7 and will run until Friday, September 20.

Prince William's Homewards programme partnered with Eleven Eleven Foundation and Saatchi Gallery to launch a groundbreaking exhibition which seeks to utilise the power of art to enhance the UK's understanding of homelessness and ignite hope that it can be ended.

The Prince of Wales founded Homewards in June 2023 as part of his mission to end homelessness and change the narrative and stereotypes around the crisis.

Kensington Palace stated the prince wanted the project to generate new imagery around homelessness and showcase the multiple layers of the crisis including feelings of hope.

Prince William is eager for the public to see the people behind the homeless crisis and the exhibition displays the powerful, emotional and harrowing lived experiences of people who faced different types of homelessness.
