This month we tested your knowledge, to see if you could recognize and pick out all of Catherine's Patronages out of a list of 20.
Now while most of you were easily able to recognize Catherine's Patronages more than 50% of you confused William and Harry Patronages's with Catherine's. (I tracked results as they came in to get a accurate account of the # people who guesses correctly, since even people who got it partly wrong, were able to get most of Catherine's Patronages)
The Royal Foundation 64%
EACH 88%
The Art Room 92%
National Portrait Gallery 84%
Action on Addiction 84%
Place 2 Be 88%
SportsAid 80%
National History Museum 64%
The 1851 Trust 88%
*Scout Association 44%
**100 Women in Hedgefund 44%
*Catherine is not actually a patron of the this organization, but is a Volunteer. So we did not make you as wrong if you didn't mark this.
** During the course of the Poll it came to our attention that Catherine is technically a "Patron" of 100 Women in Hedgefund's philanthropic initiatives. This Patronage is more of a Partnership between the Royal Foundation and 100WHF's philanthropic initiatives, so we don't classify it as one of HER Patronages. But we didn't mark this answer as either right or wrong.
Every Patronage that wasn't Catherine's was either William or Harry's which is why they seem familiar. (We did throw in one of the Queen's that Catherine visited earlier this year)
