Offering us a fascinating front-row seat to King Charles III’s commitment to protecting our planet, a recently released landmark film charts His Majesty’s personal journey as an environmentalist, presented through the work of his nature and sustainability charity, The King’s Foundation.
Documenting his pioneering ‘Harmony’ philosophy and its profound impact worldwide, ‘Finding Harmony: A King’s Vision’ chronicles the King’s lifelong commitment to nature and the environment, infused with an invitation to rediscover our connection with nature for the good of people, places and the planet.
“It all boils down to the fact that we are actually nature ourselves. We are a part of it, not apart from it,” says the King.
Charles III’s cherished memories
Born in 1948, for over 50 years, our Monarch has been experimenting with ways to bring nature back into every part of our lives, striving to restore humankind’s harmony with the natural world.
Following his belief that "seeing is believing", the eco documentary, released a few months ago following its star-studded premiere at Windsor Castle, offers a vision of the future filled with optimism.
Filming took place over four continents, highlighting Harmony projects across the globe and revealing the King’s passion for nature and the environment and his philosophy as never before. Showcasing how he always been a serious environmental advocate, along with a deeply moving, strong and spiritual undercurrent, the film’s viewers travel back in time with His Royal Highness as he watches historic footage and speaks fondly about his grandmother, his childhood and his spiritual connection to nature.
“Childhood memories are so vital,” says our Monarch. “My grandmother was a remarkable person I adored. She had the most wonderful, mischievous sense of everything, really. But also her places, like the garden at Royal Lodge, were magical. She encouraged me to look at things, to observe. It's fascinating the life that goes on at a microscopic level.”
Cherished home videos show a young Prince Charles frolicking in gardens with his mother, the late Queen Elizabeth II, and her corgis on the beach with his sister, a young Princess Anne, leading ponies through meadows, clambering over rocks and fishing with his late father, Prince Philip.
Later footage shows him casting off with a young Prince Harry and looking through binoculars with Prince William as a boy.
Explorations in the great outdoors
“I’ve always loved the countryside and adored being outside,” the King discloses. “And, as I got older, I took more-and-more of an interest and loved going out and exploring. So, for me, it’s an essential part of life to have that connection with the world outside.”
An epic tale full of drama, showcasing The King's remarkable vision, lifelong dedication to sustainability and environmental stewardship, it’s hoped the film will inspire viewers worldwide to consider their own relationship with the natural world.
Harmony worldwide, voiced by Kate Winslet
Spanning 75 years of archive footage, the film is a sumptuous cinematic experience and riveting story of hope and resilience. Stunning cinematography, unique interviews and fascinating storytelling document how the King’s philosophy and vision has sparked a worldwide movement.
Spanning 75 years of archive footage, the film is a sumptuous cinematic experience and riveting story of hope and resilience. Stunning cinematography, unique interviews and fascinating storytelling document how the King’s philosophy and vision has sparked a worldwide movement.
The documentary is beautifully narrated by Academy Award®-winning actress Kate Winslet. “I was deeply proud to become an Ambassador for The King’s Foundation but was even prouder when I was asked to provide the narration for this beautiful film,” says Hollywood heavyweight Kate.
On being announced as the voice of ‘Finding Harmony: A King’s Vision’, the multi-award-winning actress said, “It is a both a pleasure and a privilege to be a part of this film, which is a fascinating insight into The King’s work as an environmentalist.”
“I learnt so much about the philosophy of Harmony and how simple it is, both in concept and in practice, just through the experience of telling His Majesty’s story within this extraordinary documentary.”
“I share His Majesty’s passion for protecting our planet and building sustainable communities,” she continued. “So, it's been really rewarding to work with The King’s Foundation on this exciting project - the King's untold personal story that shows us how Harmony can transform our future. I know audiences will learn, laugh and feel inspired by the film, and I hope the impact of ‘Harmony’ will be felt in years to come.”
Finding Harmony: A King’s Vision
With the Monarch’s urgent message that we must put nature back at the heart of the equation, the timely documentary dedicated to an extraordinary environmental legacy aims to act as a call to action, impassioning people to protect our planet and create a more sustainable future for the next generation.
This fascinating film is about positivity when we need it most. All over the world, nature is in devastating decline, with the effects increasingly hard to ignore.
On the fight to save the planet, “It's rapidly going backwards,” declares the King. “I've said that for the last 40 years. I can only do what I can do, which is not very much. People don't seem to understand it’s not just climate that's the problem; it’s also biodiversity loss... So, we’re actually destroying our means of survival, all the time. To put that back together again is possible, but we should have been doing it long ago. We’ve got to do it as fast as we can now.”
However, His Majesty reassures us there is hope. “For nearly every problem we face, nature, with the benefit of billions of years of evolution, has already provided us with the solutions.”
The insightful documentary offers something for all, showing how our green-thinking Monarch, as Prince of Wales, pursued early environmentalism, speaking up for the science behind biodiversity loss, deforestation and climate change long before these issues became mainstream.
The film aims to spark understanding and positive change, outlining his battle with architecture through to the life-changing work of his charity, The King’s Foundation, whose vision is a world where we live in harmony with nature to improve the wellbeing of people, places and the planet.
‘Harmony’ explores the origins, evolution and scientific foundations of The King's philosophy. We learn about his work at both home – the Duchy organic farm at Highgrove in the Cotswolds, Gloucestershire, the restoration of Dumfries House in Scotland – and his ventures overseas, from rebuilding traditional architecture in Afghanistan, to conserving the Amazon rainforest.

A sustainable future - at one with nature
Produced by Passion Planet - a documentary arm of PASSION PICTURES (London), a triple Academy Award®-winning independent production studio with a global reputation for groundbreaking, thought-provoking and impactful documentaries - in collaboration with The King’s Foundation for Amazon MGM Studios, the film reveals our Head of State’s passionate promotion of positive global change.
“Never has it been more important for the world to make a concerted effort to protect and prioritise our planet, and to restore our relationship with it,” says the King. “It is, therefore, my fondest hope that this film may encourage a new audience to learn about the philosophy of Harmony and, perhaps, inspire the same sense of determination it has given me to help build a more sustainable future.”
The King’s Foundation
Founded by King Charles III as Prince of Wales in 1990, The King’s Foundation is a global charity inspired by His Majesty’s ‘Harmony’ philosophy and deeply personal mission.
Protecting and promoting The King’s philosophy of Harmony, the charity spearheads placemaking and regeneration projects in the UK and overseas to revitalise communities and historic buildings, alongside offering education courses in traditional skills, with a positive impact on hundreds of thousands of people worldwide.
All charitable activity at The King’s Foundation has nature and sustainability at its core, and the educational curriculum is based on the philosophy of Harmony, which also forms the basis of the charity’s educational curriculum.
Working to build sustainable communities, helping people play an active role and coexist with places and the planet in harmony, 15,000 students annually learn practical skills rooted in nature and tradition.
Believing the most beautiful buildings draw upon their surroundings (both built and natural) to harmonise, its architecture projects focus on traditional urban design and architecture principles centred around communities’ people, creating thousands of jobs and successfully contributing to community regeneration.
While their heritage skills programmes inspire to create environments drawing on a vast array of traditional and sustainable approaches, materials and techniques, many of which are in danger of being lost, thereby helping to preserve our historic environments whilst respecting the architecture, narratives and unique qualities these places and spaces convey.
Hollywood royalty at star-studded ‘Harmony’ premiere
The King and Queen were joined by The Duchess of Edinburgh and The Duke and Duchess of Gloucester at the Royal Premiere of ‘Finding Harmony: A King’s Vision’.
A-list Ambassadors for The King’s Foundation were also in attendance, including the film’s narrator Kate Winslet, and singing sensation Sir Rod Stewart and his model wife, Lady Penny Lancaster, playing an essential role in raising awareness of the Harmony philosophy.
Hollywood actors Dame Judi Dench, Sir Kenneth Branagh, Benedict Cumberbatch and Stanley Tucci, musician Jools Holland, astronaut Tim Peake and showbiz reporter Richard Arnold also graced the green carpet, showing their support.
A royal first at Windsor Castle
A historic royal fortress founded by William the Conqueror, Windsor Castle is the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world, showcasing centuries of architectural evolution and serving as a private home and official residence for British monarchs for over 900 years.
“The first time a film premiere has taken place in a royal residence, only a film this special, this important, could be given such an appropriate maiden voyage,” said ‘Titanic’ star Kate Winslet on opening the screening. “And only a very unique individual could merit such a film.”
“His Majesty’s vision is now brought to life through the work he does with his nature and sustainability charity, The King’s Foundation, but beyond this vital work, he has also made a remarkable film.”
The screening took place in the Waterloo Chamber, a principal State Room often used by Members of the Royal Family for Investitures, with a colourful history of being used as a venue for theatre and pantomime productions under previous Monarchs.
Queen Victoria regularly used the Waterloo Chamber for seasons of Shakespeare and contemporary productions, plus it was used for Christmas pantomimes between 1941 and 1944 by Queen Elizabeth II as a child.
Designed to commemorate The Duke of Wellington’s defeat of Napoleon Bonaparte at the Battle of Waterloo, the fitting location at the active royal palace was transformed into a sustainable state-of-the-art cinema screening room.
The Waterloo Chamber - sustainable touches
The Waterloo Chamber was dressed in florals and foliage sourced from the Royal Gardens Nursery situated in the private Home Park surrounding Windsor Castle.
English garden natives, such as ivy, were used throughout the schemes, with pittosporum also included for their variegated patterns. The plants were selected due to their evergreen nature, good structure and seasonal interest to create the most impactful displays, alongside plants from the temperate house, including Kentia palms, giving impressive green tropical structure throughout the State Apartments - a nod to the global nature of the documentary.
Following the prestigious event, all foliage went back to the estate gardens to be replanted and used for future events at Windsor Castle.
What’s more, for every attendee, The King’s Foundation planted two trees in The Harmony Forest at its headquarters, Dumfries House, while wildflower-seeded seating cards allowed attendees to plant after the event.
With a dress code encouraging guests not to buy new but to rewear, repair or recycle, other sustainable touches at the premiere saw all attendees receive a reusable green Windsor Castle water bottle, while electric buggies were used to transport them around the grounds.
CHANEL x King’s Foundation Métiers d’Art x Le19M
Members of the Royal Family, including Her Majesty The Queen, Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Edinburgh and Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Gloucester, wore handcrafted and embroidered brooches by graduates of the CHANEL & King’s Foundation Métiers d’Art Embroidery Fellowship in partnership with Le19M, based at Highgrove, home to the King and the birthplace of Harmony.
The King’s Foundation Ambassador Lady Penny Lancaster also proudly displayed a sustainable brooch while her rock star husband, Sir Rod Stewart, wore bee cufflinks. Showcasing organic elements, these stunning accessories were specially selected to fit the film premiere’s theme of ‘Rewear, Repair or Recycle’, showcasing the traditional skills taught by The King’s Foundation that His Majesty is so passionate about.
Highlighting their work to protect and promote these age-old crafts to help stop them dying out, the CHANEL & King’s Foundation Fellowship in partnership with Le19M trains future master craftspeople in skills on the Red List for Endangered Crafts.
A mixture of mohair wool, Swarovski crystals, peacock feathers, silk organza, sequins, ceramic stones, metal beads, vintage glass, metal goldwork thread and silver-plated wire were used to create these very special pieces.
Reflections from Kate Winslet
Kate Winslet introduced the motivating film by sharing reflections on her experience of narrating the documentary and learning more about His Majesty’s impressive work.
“Your Majesty, it is thanks to your great vision and foresight in protecting our natural world that we are all here this evening, and I know it is our shared hope that this film will advance the philosophy of Harmony in order to achieve a wider understanding, and in far-reaching, impactful ways.”
She continued, “Your Majesty, I know that for you, this documentary has been a lifetime in the making. Thank you for being an inspiration to us all, with your passionate approach towards promoting the positive change that you sincerely long to see across the globe. And thank you for hosting us here in the magnificent Windsor Castle, and to your exceptional team for assembling tonight’s beautiful event. What an incredible privilege it is to be here.”
Giving some insight into the Harmony theory before the viewing, Kate told the premiere’s glamorous guests, “Harmony is a beautiful theory. One that invites us to see ourselves as a part of nature and to tackle the world’s climate challenges using an interconnected, nature-first approach.”
The film shows how this theory has already been put into practice around the world, “in so many inspirational ways, across a multitude of different cultures.”
“Modern life, sadly, encourages us to forget our relationship with nature - Harmony is about remembering it.”

Harmony Highball cocktails + a locally sourced menu
Following the screening, their Majesties spent time with their guests, those involved in the documentary and Ambassadors of the King’s Foundation in the Grand Reception Room.
A special ‘Harmony Highball’ cocktail was created by the Royal Household to commemorate this very special event, while the menu for the glamorous evening reception used ingredients sourced from the nearby Windsor Estate:
Menu
Pressed Herb Roasted Norfolk Chicken
With Sweet Potato Mash, Spinach, Corn, Shallot & Thyme Jus
Mushroom Risotto
Panna Cotta
Apple Crumble
Rhubarb & Vanilla Trifle
A group from the National Piping Centre, comprising harp, fiddle, flute, small pipes and whistles, performed ahead of the screening and during the post-screening reception.
The King’s Foundation works closely with the National Piping Centre, including on its Piping for Health breath management course at the Dumfries House Health and Wellbeing Centre. The course supports people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a group of lung conditions, through learning to play the instruments, helping to regulate breathing, increase lung capacity, and lower blood pressure.
Gardening guru Alan Titchmarsh talks Harmony
The UK’s national gardening treasure and King’s Foundation Ambassador, Alan Titchmarsh CBE, exclusively reveals to me that our ‘green’ King is incredibly practical and hands on.
“His Majesty the King is such a great inspiration and wants to get stuck in,” TV’s gardening guru Alan tells me. A man who doesn’t just say 'something should be done', he gets out there and does it. I am full of admiration.”
Referring to rural Britain as “one of the greatest treasures of our nation,” the organic horticulturist says the King cares deeply about the countryside and welfare of its communities. “The need for us all to work in harmony with nature is something The King has been encouraging us to do all his adult life. It's a passion I share and something that is an integral part of responsible gardening.”
Maintaining a healthy agricultural sector is vital, not just because the landscape relies on the accumulated knowledge of farming communities for its continued stewardship, but also because the social fabric of the countryside depends on a strong farming base.
Alan says we have, sadly, become detached from rural life. “I’ve had 60 years of working with nature, in the garden and working outside. There’s no better life, getting yourself properly in touch with the earth.”
The nation’s favourite gardener gives rural life a voice. “It’s important. It’s our children’s legacy. And it’s great, beautiful, comforting, real and our responsibility. We need to enjoy the present but always have an eye to the future and sustainability and all do our bit.”
“Passionate about working with nature rather than fighting it, the King has that in common with all responsible gardeners,” Alan continues. “It's up to all of us to work in harmony with nature. The planet benefits and so do we.”
Teaming up with Sir David Beckham for the RHS Chelsea Flower Show
Top TV horticultural Alan tells me he is honoured to have a role with The King’s Foundation. “It’s a superb organisation and I’m especially pleased to be a part of an initiative to encourage horticultural apprenticeships, alongside keen amateur gardener Sir David Beckham.”
The green-fingered eco champion teamed up with fellow Ambassador Sir David for this year’s RHS Chelsea Flower Show, held by the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS), and for which Alan is also an Ambassador and Vice President.
“David, like me, is determined to make a difference and explain why gardening and horticulture is so important to us as a nation,” Alan divulges to me. “If we can get more people to understand its value and importance, we will help to ensure our land and landscape is cherished for the benefit of future generations.”
“David absolutely loves the rural life and has a great garden in the Cotswolds. He gets so much out of doing it and is a great role model.”
Championed by King Charles III, who is also Patron of the RHS, the two charities created ‘The Curious Garden’ with horticulturist and TV presenter Frances Tophill, to engage people with the Great Outdoors and to be curious in their own gardening endeavours and the vital contribution plants make to people, places and the planet’s health.
“Aside from celebrating the real joy that gardening brings to our lives, we highlighted how simply growing more plants helps mitigate both the biodiversity and climate crises and, therefore, why gardeners, from enthusiastic new gardeners to incredible skilled horticulturists, are more important today than ever,” Alan reveals.
David Beckham on inspiring others to get into nature
Sir David Beckham, who has just received a coveted star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, explains, “My love for the countryside started when I was a child visiting my grandparents.”
The Curious Garden he co-created celebrated curiosity, creativity and the many ways plants enrich people’s lives. A testament to the charitable mission of The King’s Foundation and with nature and sustainability at its core, the garden promoted access to nature, practical skills and how hands-on learning can transform lives.
The Curious Garden showcased at Chelsea Flower Show
The fabulous Chelsea Flower Show this spring was attended by Dame Joan Collins, Dame Mary Berry, Kate Moss and Kim Cattrall, among other famous faces, and featured numerous examples of how we can work with nature to help protect our planet.
The Curious Garden was positively brimming with take-home ideas for beautiful pockets of nature, be it on a windowsill or garden. “Simply growing more plants helps mitigate both the biodiversity and climate crises.” Alan advises.
Sir David and Alan joined TV horticulturist, ‘Love Your Garden’ and ‘Gardeners' World’ presenter Frances Tophill on her journey to create the special garden for the world’s most famous flower show.
“I was so excited to share my first garden for RHS Chelsea Flower Show,” says Frances. “With input from His Majesty The King, Alan Titchmarsh and Sir David Beckham, I had a lot of fun incorporating elements both celebrating their involvement and ideas they have contributed.”
The King, Sir David, Alan Titchmarsh & Frances Tophill finish their Curious Garden design at Highgrove
Once given the ‘green’ light and royal seal of approval by The King, His Majesty was joined by Sir David, Alan and Frances at his Highgrove residence in Gloucestershire to help put the finishing touches on the King’s Foundation’s Curious Garden ahead of the globally renowned flower event.
Championed by Charles III, His Majesty had much input into the garden’s design, and during the group meeting at Highgrove it was agreed the garden would feature a beehive, inspired by the King and Sir David’s enthusiasm for beekeeping and producing honey.
The Curious Garden was created free of man-made materials and featured an oak building representing a “museum of curiosities”, along with seven raised beds in a nod to Sir David’s famous no. 7 football shirt he wore whilst playing for Manchester United and England.
United by a love for gardening and the outdoors, the group’s hope with their design was that a new generation of young people would consequently consider careers in horticulture in their future.
The champions’ roses
Also featuring delphiniums, one of the King’s favourite flowers, grown by the RHS at its Wisley Garden in Surrey and celebrating King Charles III being Patron of the Delphinium Society and their prominence at his Highgrove garden, other design features included an artist’s easel, created by The King’s Foundation’s Snowdon School of Furniture, along with roses named after the three champions.
Sir David chatted with the King about the “very special” white Sir David Beckham rose, which his teenage daughter Harper had named after him.
“It was a gift from her for my 50th birthday last year,” Sir David explained to HRH. “It smells amazing, amazing.” He then quipped to the King, “Not as good as yours…”, prompting a chuckle from Charles.
The King’s rose is a pink-and-white striped English shrub rose with a subtle, fresh red apple and rosewater fragrance, while the rose named after Alan Titchmarsh is pink.
The TV presenter told the monarch, prompting more laughter, that his own rose has “a sort of peony-shaped flower. But apparently, I have a slightly weak neck. But if you prune me hard, I’m quite… It’s true actually, yeah really.”
Curiosity sparks gardening journeys
As the RHS lifted its Chelsea show ban on gnomes for only the second time in history – celebrating a tradition at Highgrove where a gnome is often to be found in the stumpery – a couple of the ornamental figures featured in the Curious Garden, with gnomes decorated by celebrities also on display at this year’s Chelsea, ahead of being auctioned off to raise funds for the RHS’s campaign for school gardening.
“Both The King’s Foundation and the RHS do such great work in protecting and promoting green spaces across the UK,” said Sir David. “I want to help encourage a new generation to appreciate the benefits of nature and get involved in gardening. It was fun to be a part of creating the Curious Garden and I was excited for people to see it at RHS Chelsea Flower Show.”
Alan added, “Curiosity is really the beginning of any gardening journey – and certainly that’s how I began my career – so I hope this work inspires a new generation of gardeners to explore their talents through the incredible training and work experience schemes available via the RHS and The King’s Foundation.”
The Curious Garden lives on: promoting the importance of plants to the health of people, places & the planet
Garden trainees from both Highgrove and RHS Wisley took part in the build for the garden, as part of the garden’s commitment to promoting careers in horticulture, while King’s Foundation millinery students created bespoke straw hats for Alan and his fellow designer Frances Tophill for Press Day.
Opposite the Curious Garden, the Highgrove Shop returned to the RHS Chelsea Flower Show for the third year in a row. Highlighting new and exclusive products, proceeds from sales went back into the work of The King’s Foundation.
Encouraging people of all ages to discover the joy of gardening, whether on a windowsill, balcony, community plot or in a larger garden, the Curious Garden illustrated the importance of plants to the health of people, places and the planet.
The very special garden will now live on at a college supporting young adults, extending its educational and environmental legacy beyond the showground, championed by RHS Ambassador and Vice-President Floella Benjamin.
“As my first Chelsea garden for the RHS, I was thrilled to be working on such a special design,” said Frances. “It was inspiring to spend time at Highgrove and learn more about His Majesty’s approach to gardening and how he incorporates his Harmony philosophy into all of the work that takes place there – which we brought to the designs for the garden.”
The King’s nature message
“Nature is our sustainer,” says the King in an important and urgent message to the world. “Therefore, what we do to her, we do to ourselves. But we have forgotten that we need to give back to nature in return for what we take from her.”
