The King's Foundation has unveiled a list of 35 "changemakers" under the age of 35 to mark the charity's 35th anniversary - and included a man who was previously arrested and acquitted for glueing himself to the floor six years ago.
Formerly known as the Prince's Foundation, the charity was established to bring together some of Charles's earlier charitable initiatives from as early as 1990. It is separate from the King's Trust, which focuses on supporting vulnerable young people aged 11 to 30.
The individuals who were selected were selected for their contributions across various creative fields and for their potential as future leaders in their respective disciplines.
Jack Harries, who has more than 3.5 million subscribers on YouTube, 31, was arrested during an Extinction Rebellion protest after gluing his hands to a hotel door at a petroleum conference in London in 2019.
He was later acquitted of criminal damage and aggravated trespass charges.
Just one year after his arrest, Jack and his twin brother, Finn established Earthrise Studio. Their media company focuses their work on environmental issues.
Reflecting on his journey, Jack—who has interviewed well-known figures, including Sir David Attenborough—has previously said: "We spent a few years going on Extinction Rebellion protests, but our friends and family didn't want to go on the marches; it all felt a bit extreme."
According to the King's Foundation, Jack was selected due to his work as a "storyteller who uses media to spotlight urgent global issues" - with approach to "blend art and activism, aiming to spark conversation, inspire action and redefine what it means to be a creator in the 21st century."
The list also features Barnaby Horn, an award-winning milliner from Leeds who previously worked in a supermarket before graduating from the Royal College of Art, and Kyle Frank, who developed a skincare range after suffering with acne as a teenager.
Freya de Lisle, an apprentice stonemason at York Minster, and Marie Bruhat, a knitwear designer raising 65 sheep on Fair Isle, also made the list.
