Concert for Diana is a celebration of the life and work of Diana, Princess of Wales. Diana was a passionate champion of the rights of disadvantaged people and did much to highlight the plight of people living with HIV or AIDS, offering a visible helping hand to those in need.

Prince William and Prince Harry have followed in her footsteps, supporting work with the young, underprivileged and vulnerable both in the UK and abroad and becoming Royal Patrons in their own right.

Proceeds from the Concert for Diana will go to these causes:

Princess Diana's Patronages and Memorial Fund

The Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fund works to raise awareness of issues that were close to Diana's heart, and provides grants to support charitable organisations in the UK and abroad, working in areas related to the causes she championed. These include projects to assist those living with HIV/AIDS, communities affected by landmines, and other vulnerable and marginalised people. The Concert for Diana will also support the work of the five organisations other than Centrepoint of which the Princess was Patron at the time of her death - the Royal Marsden and Great Ormond Street Hospitals, The Leprosy Mission, The National AIDS Trust and the English National Ballet.

Centrepoint, UK

Prince William is Patron of Centrepoint, the UK's leading youth homelessness charity. As a child, the Prince visited homelessness charities in London with his mother, Diana, Princess of Wales. William also visited a homelessness charity in Newport, Wales with his father just before his 21st birthday. In 2005, William spent a few days volunteering at Centrepoint working with young people. Prince William said, "Charities like Centrepoint do such an amazing job in helping to combat homelessness and social exclusion and I just wanted to lend my support to their remarkable efforts."

Sentebale, Lesotho

In April 2006, Prince Harry and Lesotho's Prince Seeiso founded a new charity called Sentebale to help vulnerable children and young people in Lesotho, particularly those orphaned as a result of AIDS. The new organisation is a major step in Prince Harry's pledge to continue his mother's work with disadvantaged children. He co-founded the charity with Lesotho's Prince Seeiso whose own mother Queen Mamohato, a much-loved figure in the country, died in 2003. Harry revealed: "Sentebale means 'forget me not.' We chose the name as a memorial to the charity work of our own mothers, as well as a reminder to us all not to forget Lesotho or its children."
