During the call, the Duchess of Cambridge heard about Jasmine’s 5,000-kilometre trip from the Canary Islands to Antigua which raised money for ShelterBox and the Blue Marine Foundation. The Duchess of Cambridge said: “If nothing else, it's given a huge door opener to so many other young women with that idea, with determination, with bravery and confidence, so much is really achievable, so a huge well done”

The Duchess of Cambridge wore a new blouse by Boden (with thanks to @Japanese_Ginger). It looks like she also wore her Missoma earrings.
