The surprise plan of Queen Letizia, Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofía in Palma: a visit to the Casa Esment

As every summer, the Royal Family —before starting their private vacations— enjoys a few days in Palma, where they attend different events: the Queen is a regular at the closing of the Atlàntida Mallorca Film Fest, Felipe VI holds meetings with the authorities and participates in the King's Cup of Sailing, they receive the Balearic society at Marivent and, also, take advantage of making a surprise appearance at some point on the Balearic island.

This year, Queen Letizia, Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofía visited the Esment Foundation, which, since 1962, has been carrying out important work in favor of the rights, autonomy and labor inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities and their families. At the facilities of the Esment printing house in Palma, they have learned about the history of the foundation dedicated to innovation, training and labor inclusion, and the reality of the people who work there.
