Princess Kate had quite a "girlhood" evening, as she sat and shared a ride with senior citizens in Pulborough.

On Wednesday, September 30, Kate surprised seniors in Pulborough village, who are taking part in activities to combat loneliness.

In videos circulating on the social media platforms, Kate could be seen laughing with a group of women at the lunch club and enjoying potato snacks.


What did Princess Kate wear for a solo fall outing?

For the outing, the Princess of Wales radiated charm in a monochrome look, wearing a new grey pussybow blouse by Reiss with matching grey trousers and a jigsaw coat.

She accessorised her look with burgundy Gianvitto Rossi pumps, a matching Victoria Beckham belt and maroon Smythson bag.


The princess skipped her usual waves for a bouncy, elegant ponytail.

Kate Middleton hopped aboard a minibus with senior citizens

During her sweet trip, Kate rode the West Sussex Minibus, a community-run transportation option for citizens who can't otherwise get around.

Sharing photographs from the heartfelt outing, the Prince and Princess of Wales official Instagram penned, "Spending time with attendees and volunteers at the weekly lunch club in Pulborough Village Hall with the support of West Sussex Minibuses."

"Inspiring to see how a culture of care can be created anywhere, with small, everyday gestures helping to build stronger, more connected communities," the caption noted.

The service is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. The organisation now operates eight village hubs, supported by 284 volunteers and a fleet of 11 minibuses that travel approximately 60,000 miles and provide around 13,000 journeys each year.

Kate also helped people from their homes onto the bus and met with volunteers who make sure that local residents can continue to participate in community life.
