September 8 marks the third anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's death, and this year, Prince Harry will be in the U.K. on his grandmother's anniversary to attend an event that's long been close to his heart. The Duke of Sussex has served as patron of children's charity WellChild for 17 years, and on Thursday, August 28, the organization confirmed that the Duke of Sussex will once again attend its annual awards, to be held in London on Sept. 8.
"I am always privileged to attend the WellChild Awards and meet the incredible children, families and professionals who inspire us all with their strength and spirit," the duke said in a statement. This year, the charity is celebrating its 20th year of handing out the awards, which honor seriously ill children and their caregivers.
