Duke of Cambridge to visit Staffordshire
The Duke of Cambridge is visiting Staffordshire next week to attend a special memorial service.
William will be at the National Memorial Arboretum in Alrewas for a dedication ceremony for the Football Remembers Memorial to commemorate the 1914 Christmas Truce.
FA chairman Greg Dyke and England manager Roy Hodgson will also be attending the event on Friday.
The design for the memorial was chosen by The Duke of Cambridge and Arsenal footballer Theo Walcott from applicants to the Football Remembers competition which ran in schools across the UK.
The young designer, 10-year-old Spencer Turner from Farne PrimarySchool in Newcastle upon Tyne, will also be at the dedication ceremony.
The memorial unveil is part of Football Remembers, a series of events in December being delivered jointly by the Premier League, The FA and the Football League in partnership with the British Council, to commemorate the First World War.
William has been President of the FA since 2006.
On the same day, William will be visiting St Basils Supported Accommodation in Birmingham to meet young residents and staff and Holford Drive Community Sports HUB, also in Birmingham to formally open the community sports centre.
