Prince Harry is following in the footsteps of his late mother, Diana, by putting aside his hard-partying ways to pursue charity work in Africa.

The 23-year-old royal has been working up a sweat as he helps renovate the only school for disabled kids in the tiny African mountain kingdom of Lesotho.

When asked if his mother would be proud of his efforts, Harry said simply, “I hope so.”

At present the Thuso Community Centre is home to 43 children with profound physical and intellectual disabilities, but when the renovations are complete, it will house up to 80 youngsters.

“This is the only school for the mentally handicapped in Lesotho, and once the project is finished we hope to make another in the centre and one in the south,” says Harry.
