Prince Harry is set to headline "United For Freedom," a charity fundraiser in support of Ukraine to be held at London's Imperial War Museum on 1 October, alongside billionaire Sir Richard Branson. Despite recent comments from King Charles reaffirming that Harry and Meghan are private citizens with no royal representative role, the event underscores Harry's continued commitment to Ukraine-related causes and his active public profile in Britain.

The black-tie evening will see 120 guests each contribute £1,000, with proceeds supporting two funds, including "Superhumans" — backed by Sting, Bear Grylls and Harry — which has raised $130 million (£96 million) to fund over 2,600 operations and more than 2,200 prosthetic limbs for those wounded in the war. Guests will also have networking opportunities with figures from business, diplomacy and public life, and an auction will offer prizes including a week at Branson's Moskito Island; Harry is donating a signed copy of his memoir, Spare, rather than the use of his Montecito mansion.
