Kate Middleton and Prince William to move into new eight-bedroom home worth £16 million

The Prince and Princess of Wales are to move into a new home in Windsor. William and Kate are moving to eight-bedroom Forest Lodge in Windsor Great Park, with their children George, Charlotte and Louis. A Kensington Palace spokesperson said: 'The Wales family will move house later this year.' According to The Sun, the royal couple are paying for the property and renovations themselves, avoiding any extra cost to the taxpayer. The paper reported that work has already started on minor renovation at the Grade II-listed property. The move will be a short one from their current main home at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor, and the children attend nearby Lambrook School. They also have homes at Anmer Hall in Norfolk and Apartment 1A in Kensington Palace in London. As heir to the throne, William inherited the Duchy of Cornwall estate, a portfolio of land, property and investments valued at more than £1 billion, when his father became King. According to The Sun, Forest Lodge would be worth about £16 million on the open market. The freehold is owned by the King.

London West End al fresco dining pilot start date is 'too late'

A new al fresco dining scheme is expected to begin in London's West End on Friday but some businesses have questioned its Sadiq Khan's Summer Streets Fund, news of which was first announced in May, will support new outdoor dining spaces to open up in four locations across the capital.A date had not been given for its introduction to St Martin's Lane, but the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS) has spoken with several restaurants and cafés there, all of whom said their licences become operational on 22 August until the end of scheme, which is backed by £300,000 from City Hall, has already funded al fresco dining in locations in Leyton, Shoreditch and Brixton. The mayor's press team was approached for comment though did not confirm the launch date. An officer instead referred the LDRS to the mayor's previous statements and press each location chosen to benefit from the Summer Streets Fund is to operate slightly differently, the overriding intention is to support the local hospitality industry and boost outdoor eating and the scheme was first announced, Sir Sadiq said: "We saw what a success it was during the pandemic, and I want to expand al fresco dining further in the years to come, all part of building a better London for everyone." 'Good for business' All of the businesses the LDRS spoke to on St Martin's Lane, which is receiving £50,000 of the £300,000 pot, said they were optimistic about the manager at Côte Brasserie, Natalia Prusik, said she was "excited" by the upcoming launch."[It would have been] much more exciting if it started in May, but we will take it as it comes. But it's really good for the business for sure," she Prusik said they are to have around 14 tables on the street and 28 Simonte, general manager at the Italian restaurant Fumo, echoed Ms Prusik's enthusiasm."It's been a number of years I have tried to get tables outside," he said. "We should have started earlier I believe. It's the end of August."Mr Simonte added he would like to see the scheme rolled out in future years and to make the most of the summer spots which confirmed they will be involved included The Real Greek, La Roche, Pizza Express and Browns. Once implemented, St Martin's Lane will be car-free from 11:00 to 23:00 with al fresco licences available for up to 34 businesses, City Hall had earlier said. A spokesperson for Westminster City Council, the local authority, said: "Westminster is home to a thriving al fresco dining scene, with over 900 licences for outdoor dining granted in the past six months alone."The St Martin's Lane initiative, in the heart of West End Theatre Land, is part of a broader programme to help visitors make the most of Westminster's world-class restaurants, bars, and cultural destinations this summer."The other locations to benefit from the scheme are Redchurch Street and Rivington Street in Shoreditch, Atlantic Road in Brixton and Francis Road in Forest has been allocated £50,000 of the fund, with Hackney and Lambeth getting £100,000 each.

DEAR CAROLINE: I'm concerned about my grandson, who was taken out of school aged five to be home-schooled.

Q I am deeply concerned about my grandson who is ten. He was taken out of school by his parents aged five due to being bullied. His mother decided she wanted to home-school him. After a short time he grew tired of this and wouldn't concentrate or listen. During lockdown she gave up teaching him, taking him skateboarding instead. I was so relieved when his younger brother started school (without problems) but I'm upset with their reluctance to sort my eldest grandchild's education. His mother claimed he had ADHD but now says he doesn't, and, worst of all, she now works part-time to fund her expensive tastes, leaving him alone for large parts of the day. His father works away during the week, and I work full time so I can't help during the day.
