Prince Harry will meet a group of people associated with the film
as well as charities that the film will benefit: Walking with the
Wounded; Sentebale and The David Rattray Memorial Trust. The Prince
is a founding Patron of Sentebale and has been Patron of a number
of Walking With The Wounded expeditions.
Zulu is a film about the British Army and the Zulu Battalions set
in January 1879 and tells the story of how 11 Victoria Crosses were
awarded when 150 British soldiers fielded 4000 Zulu warriors. The
event will be a celebration of the original film 50 years ago and
of the work the charities carry out with the wounded and in
Africa.
Walking With The Wounded finances the re-training of wounded
servicemen and women and in so doing, assists them with the skills
and qualifications necessary to find new careers outside of the
military.
Sentebale is a charity founded by Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso of
Lesotho, which helps the most vulnerable children in Lesotho get
the support they need to lead healthy and productive lives.
The David Rattray Memorial Trust aim is to educate and care for
children in a number of schools in a defined area of Kwa-Zulu
Natal. The charity commemorates David Rattray, who devoted his life
to the study of the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879.
