The Prince’s visit to Guyana will wrap up his two-week visit to the Caribbean on behalf of Queen Elizabeth II.
The fifth-in-line for the throne has already visited Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Grenada, St Kitts and Nevis, St Lucia and St Vincent and the Grenadines.
The visit to the Caribbean coincides with the 50th Anniversary of Independence for Guyana, the 50th Anniversary of Independence for Barbados, and the 35th Anniversary of Independence for Antigua and Barbuda.
The Prince will spend three days in Guyana. The British High Commissioner to Guyana, Gregory Quinn, had stated that His Royal Highness will have the opportunity to see life in Guyana from various perspectives, including not only Georgetown but also the hinterland – most notably the villages of Surama and FairView, as well as the spectacular Kaieteur Falls and the Iwokrama conservation reserve.
“It will, I can confidently predict, be a visit that HRH will not forget,” the High Commissioner was quoted as saying.
Born in London, England as Prince Henry Charles Albert David, on September 15, 1984, the Prince is the second son of Charles, Prince of Wales and the late Princess Diana of Wales.
He served in Afghanistan and was promoted to captain in 2011.
In 2015, Prince Harry ended a decade of active service in the military. He currently volunteers for the army in support of wounded servicemen as well as devotes his time to his duties as a member of the royal family. He is involved in numerous charitable causes.
