The Red Cross has set up a new fund for people affected by HIV and Aids in Lesotho, following Prince Harry’s visit to the country earlier this year.
The Red Cross Lesotho Fund has been launched to coincide with the broadcast of “The Forgotten Kingdom – Prince Harry in Lesotho” on 19 September at 18.30 on ITV1. The programme features the Prince’s eight-week visit to the southern African country in February and March 2004.
A spokesperson from Clarence House said: “Harry hopes that his visit, and now this film, will help raise awareness and money to help tackle the problems faced by the people of Lesotho.”
