Fantastic news! I know this sounds silly...but little things like this show that her boys haven't forgotten her memory. I know that Prince Charles is a good father and I know that they want him to be happy (i.e. the marriage with Camilla). But sometimes it just seems like Camilla has totally stepped into her life and has the opportunity to participate in things that Diana can't (graduation, wedding, birth of children, etc.)
Sorry if that offends anyone.

William premieres itself in the charity
14 of September of 2005
The prince William of England will premiere in the honor president functions with a charitable company of aid to the people without home, has elected the own youth, of 23 years.
The prince will preside the foundation Centrepoint, continuing the steps of its mother, the dead Diana of Wales, that assumed that responsibility in 1992, reported yesterday the official residence of Clarence House.
The prince is "deeply worried" by the people, above all the youths, that "they are found living in the street without an own house", according to official sources.
William has been working as a volunteer in Centrepoint in the last two days, during which has spoken with people without ceiling and has helped in the search of solutions to its situation.
Companies as this "perform an impressive work for the fight in favor of the social exclusion and I only intend to give them my support to its efforts", declared the youth. (EFE)

Zonk1189, it doesn't sound silly at all - it was exactly what I was thinking. At times it does seem Diana is forgotten, or that when she is remembered, it is only in a negative way. It is nice to see that the work that was important to her is being continued by the sons which she loved so much. Diana took her young sons to homeless shelters and hospices, hoping to giving them an idea of the struggles faced by those less fortunate. She was criticized by some who thought William & Harry were too young to be exposed to that side of life. So it is nice to hear that years later, William viewed these visits in a very positive light:
"My mother introduced that sort of area to me a long time ago. It was a real eye-opener and I'm very glad she did. It's been something I've held close to me for a long time." http://www.hellomagazine.com/royalty...princewilliam/

 Prince William first visited Centrepoint with his mother
Prince William has chosen a young people's homelessness charity as the first to which he will be a patron.
The 23-year-old will be following in the footsteps of his mother, who became a patron to the charity in 1992.
Clarence House said William had spent the past two days working as a volunteer at Centrepoint.
He said he was "deeply concerned" for people, especially the young, "who find themselves living on the streets or without a proper home". .....

Prince William meets homeless teens at Centrepoint hostel
Prince William met homeless youngsters today on a private visit to a Centrepoint hostel.
The 24-year-old chatted to teenagers as he dropped in on a shelter to help with breakfast early this morning.
During the low-key visit in Soho, central London, William met some of those who would have been spending Christmas on the streets had it not been for the charity's support.
