A charity in the UK ends partnership with Sharon Osbourne after rally support

Sharon Osbourne announced last week that she will be present at Tommy Robinson’s “Unite the Kingdom” anti-immigration demonstration in the UK next month, as per Loudwire. The U.K. homelessness organization Centrepoint, which has formally cut connections with their now-former celebrity ambassador, was among the many harsh comments this received. According to Loudersound, Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon, advertised the May 16th event in a social media post last week. According to Consequence, the rally will take place in London’s Trafalgar Square. The post featured a video in which Robinson asserted that the date marks the moment when “Britain rises and reunites,” according to the U.K. publication Metro.

It’s the date the world hears our roar, and that we have had enough of migration and mass immigration and the oppression from a tyrannical government.

Osbourne commented: See you at the march.

The guardian reports that the organization

… has said it will cut ties with its celebrity ambassador Sharon Osbourne after she expressed support for a far-right rally being organised by Tommy Robinson. In response [to Osbourne’s comment on Robinson’s post], Centrepoint, which had recently engaged Osbourne as an ambassador for a campaign, said: “This sort of event does not align with our values.” It added: “Centrepoint has a proud history of supporting young people whatever their background, ethnicity or religion. If we want young people to thrive in this country then we need to ensure our society continues to allow them to live without fear and able to access the opportunities they need to start education or work and leave homelessness behind.

Centrepoint have expressed its gratitude to Osbourne for supporting its Omaze campaign, which raised money by selling entries for a sweepstakes-style draw to win a £5m home overlooking Lake Windermere along with £250,000 in cash. While Sharon supported us on this campaign, for which she was referred to as an ambassador as is standard for Omaze prize draws, she is not an official ongoing ambassador of Centrepoint and we have no plans to work together in the future.

According to Loudersound, Robinson and Elon Musk spoke at a prior Unite the Kingdom event in 2025 that drew over 100,000 attendees. 26 police officers were hurt, and 25 people were taken into custody. Osbourne has not yet made a public statement in response to Centerpoint’s ruling and justification.
