Princess Kate had stepped back from royal duties to focus on her health

Princess Kate has announced an update on a new project – marking the first she has been involved in since her cancer diagnosis.

The Princess of Wales posted a trailer for a short film which highlights the mental health challenges faced by Britain’s farmers.

It is Kate’s first official project since she announced she was in the early stages of treatment after a cancer diagnosis.

The teaser was released on The Prince and Princess of Wales’ social media accounts as part of Metal Health Week.

Writing on her official account, she said: “This #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek we’ve brought together the inspirational Sam Stables from We Are Farming Minds and the brilliant Farmer Will for a very special film.

“Spending a day together on Sam’s farm in Hereford they chatted about mental health in the farming community, finding support and the Duchy of Cornwall’s Mental Health Strategy.”

The film is now available in full on YouTube.

The Princess of Wales does not feature in the film but was produced under the guidance of herself and Prince William.
