The duchy’s secretary, Will Bax, previously described William as highly engaged and ambitious in the role. Speaking to The Telegraph, Bax said the prince approaches the position with strong conviction and a genuine desire to make a positive difference.
“He’s easy to follow because he’s got great conviction and personality,” Bax said, noting that William wears his “heart on his sleeve” when it comes to social issues and supporting communities.
For the people of Cornwall, the visit served as both a celebration of their heritage and a reminder that their duke remains closely connected to the region.
