Over the past few years William and Kate have been laying groundwork in the areas they want to focus on for the rest of their lives. There is no retirement for kings and queens, so they have planned their charity affiliations and royal responsibilities carefully. For the eight months following her wedding Kate attended meetings, did research, and made private visits to charities before her first five patronages were announced in January 2012. She now has 12 and William has 26. Additionally they — along with Prince Harry — set up their own charity, The Royal Foundation. Meanwhile William has gone from search and rescue pilot to air ambulance pilot, and before the end of the year he will become a full-time working royal.
