In his role as head of the estate as the Duke of Cornwall, he told The Telegraph last year: \u201cWe\u2019re not the traditional landowner, we want to be more than that.\u201d<\/p>\n
In 2023, he launched a mental health scheme for the Duchy to support farmers, and said at the time it was his \u201cabsolute priority\u201d in his approach to running the estate that his tenants felt supported.<\/p>\n
He has also previously spoken about his intention to make the estate a \u201cpositive force for good\u201d that will \u201cmake people\u2019s lives better\u201d.<\/p>\n
A significant part of his mission with the 700-year-old Duchy \u2013 as well as to \u201cmodernise\u201d it \u2013 has been supporting the mental health of farmers and arranging get-togethers to combat rural loneliness.<\/p>\n
The Prince aims to visit parts of the estate once every four to six weeks, often meeting families and staff during private visits.<\/p>\n
His edition of Country Life will also follow his father posing for the magazine\u2019s front cover last November after the \u201cremarkable\u201d restoration of his 20,000-acre Sandringham estate.<\/p>\n
Leaning gently on his shepherd\u2019s crook, the King smiles proudly on the cover as he shows off the restored gardens at his Norfolk estate.<\/p>\n
Country Life is a weekly magazine that celebrates nature and the English countryside, and has been in print since 1897. It features articles on rural communities, hobbies and politics.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
