Their trip to Scotland takes place during Mental Health Week, and as such the royals will visit the University of Glasgow and talk to students, academics and recent alumni about mental health.
For part of their visit, they will speak to researchers and students at the university's School of Psychology and Neuroscience.
Work being carried out at the institute focuses on how mental wellbeing can be impacted both positively and negatively, and is helping inform initiatives taken by the University of Glasgow and the wider community to better the mental health of students.

"Because it was here in Scotland – twenty years ago this year – that I first met Catherine. Needless to say, the town where you meet your future wife holds a very special place in your heart."
