The Charity Commission announced on 19 August 2026 that its Annual Public Meeting was planned for Thursday 15 October 2026 from 1.00pm, with the livestream expected to start promptly then and the session running to 2.15pm. Chair Dame Julia Unwin, Chief Executive David Holdsworth and colleagues were to give updates on the Commission's activities and answer questions about its work.

The event was described as hybrid and free, with registration required. Online attendees would watch a livestream and have an opportunity to ask questions, with a joining link to be sent a few days beforehand. As of the notice, applications to attend in person were closed; those requesting a place by 6pm on Wednesday 26 August were to hear in early September whether an in-person invitation could be extended, with the central London venue confirmed at that point. Those not offered a place would automatically receive the online link.
