As royal readers know, Kate Middleton’s family business Party Pieces has recently joined forces with Starlight, a charity for terminally ill children. A quick visit to both websites reveal some relevant information about what they really do.

Party Pieces appears to have been involved in Starlight’s Party Programme since Autumn 2008, as revealed in their website. Last Christmas, they also helped arrange 200 parties for over 10,000 children.

This summer, Starlight’s Party Programme once again celebrated with lots of parties and pantomimes. “We’ve funded nearly 300% more parties than this time last year. And with the help of our lovely friends at Party Pieces, we’ve delivered over 1,400 goody bags, along with pretty party plates, cups and sparkly star decorations. We are also thrilled to have completed our Starlight party goodies redesign with the help of the clever folk at Party Pieces.”
