LONDON (Reuters) – Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, made video calls to a series of new parents, some midwives and other maternity workers to promote her message and raise awareness of the importance of taking mental health into account during the emerging pandemic of Corona virus.

A video posted by Kensington Palace, the residence and office of Kate and her husband, British Prince William, shows the Duchess, who has three children, video chatting with a mother who gave birth the night before, a midwife and several other people.

“You play a vital role as organizations in providing information,” Kate told workers with mental health nonprofits in a conference call. People generally trust you a lot, so the information you provide is a saving for many people in this period. ”

The video was released on the occasion of Postpartum Mental Health Awareness Week in Britain.

William and Kate have long been campaigning to raise awareness about mental health issues. Last week, the couple launched a new service called “Our Front Line” or our Front Line and dedicated it to providing 24-hour psychological support to key workers involved in fighting the Corona virus crisis.
