The Prince's Foundation

RESPECTING THE PAST, BUILDING THE FUTURE

The sale of Highgrove Products, Garden Tours and Events support and enable the life and work of The Prince’s Foundation.

The Prince’s Foundation provides holistic solutions to challenges facing the world today. The Foundation champions a sustainable approach to how we live our lives and build our communities. It runs a diverse programme of education and training for all ages and backgrounds and it regenerates and cares for places where communities thrive and that visitors enjoy.

The Foundation works nationally and internationally but at the heart of the organisation is the heritage-led regeneration of the Dumfries House estate and its wider community.

The work of The Prince’s Foundation is inspired by His Majesty The King Charles III's philosophy of harmony: that by understanding the balance, the order and the relationships between ourselves and the natural world, we can create a more sustainable future.

For more than 40 years His Majesty has been at the forefront of championing sustainability. During the last decade the impact of natural resource depletion, climate change and rapid urbanisation has become evident and widely understood. The work of The Prince’s Foundation is inspired by the belief that only by taking a holistic view can we create a sustainable future to meet the needs of our world.

The Prince’s Foundation was created through the merger, in 2018, of The Prince’s Foundation for Building Community, The Prince’s Regeneration Trust, The Great Steward of Scotland’s Dumfries House Trust and The Prince’s School of Traditional Arts.
