Princess Kate has helped a jewellery brand raise over £15,000 for charity.

The Princess of Wales helped the company EAR SASS to raise money for the Brave Mind Charity over the last year.


The princess wore a pair of the jewellery brand’s earrings on World Mental Health Day in 2023 causing the product to sell out for weeks after.

The company thanked the princess for helping raise awareness of their cause and named the earrings “The Catherine” after Kate.

EAR SASS posted on X, formerly known as Twitter: “The Princess of Wales has helped us to raise over £15k for a very special charity close to my heart @BraveMind14.

“We then dedicated The Catherine earrings to the Princess to say thank you for all she had done to raise awareness.”

The princess was gifted the star-shaped earrings by Sarah Renton, whose 17-year-old daughter died by suicide on April 29, 2023.

The company donated £5 from every pair of earrings sold to the Brave Mind charity who work to improve the mental health of people in and connected to the rugby community.

Kate wore the earrings when she attended a SportsAid mental fitness workshop on World Mental Health Day in October 2023.

The engagement highlighted the importance of mental wellbeing in young people.

For the event, the princess paired the earrings with white Veja trainers with shiny gold detailing and a bright blue blazer.

The earrings, which sell for £25.50 on the EAR SASS website, can be purchased in gold or white gold.

The Princess of Wales focuses much of her work on the youngest people in society focusing on families, addiction and mental health.

Over the last decade, Princess Kate has been looking into how early childhood experiences are the causes of today's hardest social challenges including poor mental health, suicide and homelessness.

Princess Kate’s husband, Prince William, focuses his charity work on the illegal wildlife trade, tackling mental health stigma and supporting our emergency services.

The prince is also “leading a global search for solutions to save our planet through The Earthshot Prize,” according to the couple’s Royal Foundation website.
