Following a joint investigation by The Sunday Times, The Times and Channel 4 Dispatches, which was published in September 2023, a number of charities including the Trevi Women & Children’s Charity and the Treasures Foundation cut ties with Brand and his foundation.
Last month, a BBC review into Brand’s conduct during his time with the corporation found a number of people “felt unable to raise” concerns about the presenter and believed he “would always get his way and therefore they stayed silent”.
The corporation apologised, and said it was of “great concern that some of these individuals” felt they could not make complaints about Brand when he was on BBC 6 Music and BBC Radio 2 between 2006 and 2008.
Russell Brand has closed his charity for addiction and mental health support.
The charity, which was described on its website as an organisation that focuses on “supporting people through recovery from addiction, their mental health issues and the non-profit organisations that help them”, was removed officially in January.
