As patron of Kræftens Bekæmpelse, crown princess Mary opened the National Convention for Young Cancer Patients in Svendborg.
The convention was a first initiative to establish networks for young people suffering from cancer, in order for them to share experiences and thoughts and get support from others in a similar situation.
Tanja Doky accompanied Mary as lady-in-waiting.
At night, crown prince Frederik & crown princess Mary joined queen Margrethe II and her sister queen Anne Marie of Greece at the gala premiere of 'The Wild Swans' at Imperial Biografen in Copenhagen.
Queen Margrethe had designed sets and costumes for this film adaptation of HC Andersen's fairy tale. She also made a cameo in the film.
Mary wore new earrings by Amrita Singh.
