Duchess of Cambridge launches landmark childhood survey
The Duchess of Cambridge has stepped out on a solo royal engagement, launching a UK-wide survey aimed at improving early childhood.

Catherine visited Thinktank museum in Birmingham to mark the launch of 5 Big Questions – an online survey asking people to provide their view on raising children under five.

She also made a visit to a nursery in London and a baby sensory class in Cardiff for the launch. Following that, the Duchess visited HM Prison Send to talk with women who have been rehabilitated as well as those who are currently at the prison.

Speaking at MiniBrum, an interactive mini-city within Thinktank, the Duchess said, “I’m here today to launch a survey to hear society’s views about raising the next generation.

“Parents, carers and families are at the heart of caring for children in the formative years so that is why I really want to listen to them.

“The early years are more crucial for future health and happiness than any other moment in our lifetime.”

The poll is part of a project that has been eight years in the making for Catherine, with the Duchess focusing much of her work on how social challenges affect childhood development.
