At the centre in the eastern neighbourhood of Stratford, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge met workers and volunteers as well as families who have turned to the charity for help.

Kate, who is patron of the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families, earlier visited its Early Years Parenting Unit (EYPU), joining in a "'theraplay' session, which promotes the attachment relationship between parents and children", Kensington Palace said on Twitter.

The EYPU works with families with children under five.
