William and Kate undertook some of the essential training received by Young Minds helpline volunteers.

Volunteers are trained to listen, talk & ask parents questions on what is worrying them about their child’s behaviour.

The Duchess spoke about the need for helplines like Young Minds:

"William and I found it absolutely fascinating, from hearing the case study and also taking the calls. She said the types of calls were so varied - 'what their worries are, their concerns'. She added: 'What we've taken away is just how normal it is. We are parents ourselves, I am sure we will face worries - we do face worries, because we've got small young children. If those worries escalate, how vital it is to get support - and you are providing that support."

She added: "As a parent and as a mother, having that feeling that there is somebody there that is non-judgemental, that can provide the professional support, and that can really provide helping hand at a really difficult time."

Today, the Duchess stepped out in a new summer frock from her favorite high-street brand, LK Bennett. She wore the label's 'Eugenia skirted dress'; rendered in salsa red with short sleeves and a seamed A-line skirt.  The dress is from a 2015 collection and was originally priced at £225. It has unfortunately sold out.
