Charles was born in Buckingham Palace during the reign of his maternal grandfather, George VI, and was three years old when his mother, Elizabeth II, acceded to the throne in 1952, making him the heir apparent. He was created Prince of Wales in 1958 and his investiture was held in 1969.

As heir apparent, Charles undertook official and ceremonial duties and engagements on behalf of his mother. He also established a number of charities and foundations, including The Prince's Trust, which helps young people in the UK.
