A royal aide said the princess – who will not speak on the night but will feature in a pre-filmed introduction to be broadcast on Christmas Eve – hoped the service would remind people of ‘how precious’ the early years of a child’s life at a time when the world celebrates the birth of a newborn baby.
‘It is a reminder of how unique this time is, and how precious those early years are, as we start to form our very first relationships, bond with those closest to us, and explore the world in which we live,’ they said.
‘It also signifies hope. As we look to the future, we hope our children will grow up in a happier, healthier, fairer, kinder and more tolerant world. A world based on love and compassion.
‘This evening, Westminster Abbey will be filled with more than 1,500 inspiring people in appreciation of their selfless support as they work tirelessly to help the youngest members of our society to flourish.’
