King Charles announces major rebrand to reflect his royal status

This organisation has helped launch the careers of many successful people, such as the actor Idris Elba.

Now that Charles is King, it has been confirmed that The Prince's Trust will be renamed The King's Trust.

Similarly, The Prince of Wales’s Charitable Fund will become the King Charles III Charitable Fund, and The Prince’s Foundation will be renamed The King’s Foundation.

The King's Trust was founded by Charles in 1976 when he was the Prince of Wales.

The charity helps young disadvantaged people through employment, education and enterprise to build a better future.

Meanwhile, the King Charles III Charitable Fund was founded in 1979.

This Fund is committed to creating a sustainable future for all, therefore, it invests in the Environment and Countryside, Social Inclusion, Health and Wellbeing, and Heritage and Education.

Lastly, the King’s Foundation was formed in 1986 and is based at Dumfries House, Ayrshire.

This foundation was the hardest charity for King Charles to rename.

There was already a charity called the King's Foundation, which was formed in 1999 as a well-established Sheffield-based charity.
