A Message From The Duke of Cornwall to Duchy of Cornwall Tenants

Earlier this year, His Royal Highness recorded a video message for tenants of the Duchy of Cornwall, expressing support for those facing challenges as a result of the global pandemic and celebrating how communities across the estate have come together to support each other. 

In his role as Duke of Cornwall, The Prince of Wales is actively involved in running the estate. The Duchy is run in accordance with The Prince’s own social and environmental values. He ensures that, as well as providing him with an income, the estate must also focus on supporting the communities who live and work there, as well as protecting the land itself for future generations. This dual strategy has been at the heart of The Prince’s vision for the last five decades and makes the estate unique amongst other similar organisations.
