Kate is royal patron of both Evelina London Children's Hospital and the National Portrait Gallery, which brings the arts workshops to the hospital.

Last week she visited multiple kids' centers across the U.K. to launch \"5 big questions on the under 5s,\" a survey released by The Royal Foundation, Prince William and Kate's charitable arm.

The survey asks residents across the U.K. to share their thoughts on \"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 want to listen to them,\" Kate said in a statement announcing the survey. \"As a parent I know how much we cherish the future health and happiness of our children.\"

\"I want to hear the key issues affecting our families and communities so I can focus my work on where it is needed most,\" she added. \"My ambition is to provide a lasting change for generations to come.\"
