The Earl and Countess of Wessex will be visiting the child development unit and hydrotherapy pool at the Royal Cornwall Hospital on October 29.
The services, based in Dolphin House, provide continuous assessment and development programmes for pre-school age children with complex physical needs and learning and communication difficulties.
It will be the first visit of the royal couple to the hospital where they will meet some of the children and parents as well as staff, teachers, paediatric physiotherapists and occupational therapists, Diana Nurses and paediatric clinicians.
Trust chairman Angela Alderman said: "We are delighted that the earl and countess will be visiting Dolphin House. The work of the unit is an excellent example of how well the different health, education and social care professionals work closely together with parents to provide seamless care for children and this will be a wonderful opportunity to raise awareness of the very important work that they do."
