Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have urged their followers to ‘unleash a groundswell of compassion’ on women ahead of International Women’s Day this month in an update on their website.
The Duke, 36, and Duchess of Sussex, 39, who are currently living in their $14 million Californian mansion, gave their Archewell website a makeover over the weekend, using a snappy paragraph to declare they plan to ‘drive systemic cultural change’ through ‘one act of compassion at a time’.
The duo have now changed the website again to celebrate the day on March 8, and encouraged fans to perform charitable acts and good deeds through their website.
Suggestions include supporting charities including Meghan’s patronage Smart Works, which focuses on helping unemployed and vulnerable women return to employment, or sponsoring a girl through Myna Mahila.
The couple have also stripped a photograph volunteering together in LA from the site, and now feature a picture of then-actress Meghan delivering a speech at the UN Women conference in 2015.

Prince Harry and Meghan’s organisation has also created a portable list of good deeds to ‘share with friends, hang it in your fridge, and inspire acts of compassion everyday, all month long.’
Suggested ‘good deeds’ include ‘picking up the phone to check in with a friend’ and ‘enabling women-led non-profits to thrive.’
In December last year the Duke and Duchess launched the site of their non-profit organisation, in which they vowed to ‘unleash the power of compassion’ and Harry described himself as his ‘mother’s son’.
At the time, the couple originally shared two images on the homepage, one of Harry as a boy with Diana, taken at Highgrove in July 1986, and one of Meghan as a girl with her mother, Doria Ragland.
