The charity is like a food bank, but for clothes, toys and equipment for babies and children up to the age of 5.  Since their launched in 2016, Little Village has supported thousands of visits from families across London.

Just when you think you’re over Zoom, along comes a call from The Duchess of Cambridge!

The Duchess premiered the L.K.Bennett Liv Cream Cotton-Merino Wool Collared Jumper for the Zoom chat with the Little Village founder and two mothers supported by the charity.

The 'Liv' sweater is crafted from a soft cotton and merino wool blend in cream, and features a Seventies-inspired collar, short placket with navy buttons, and navy stitch detail.   LK Bennett's retro-inspired 'Liv' collection also includes a pink cardigan and a navy knitted dress.

​We saw the return of the unidentified gold hoop earrings which Kate wore earlier this week for a chat with nursing students.
