Prince William and Kate Middleton are visiting young people in northwestern England on their last official trip before they wed later this month.

The couple will open a community academy and launch a youth award named after the prince during Monday's visit.

They will also visit a country park as part of William's role as patron of a plan to protect outdoor recreational spaces.

Since announcing their engagement in November, the couple has traveled to Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland as Middleton is introduced to royal duties — and to the British public.

The couple will marry at Westminster Abbey on April 29.
