War Child’s Spring Clean 2026 is giving the public the opportunity to own a number of celebrity donations, including a Isabell Kristensen blazer worn by Carr during a stint on RuPaul’s Drag Race, and a personally dedicated X-Files photo signed by Duchovny and Anderson, who is a War Child global ambassador.

Also being auctioned are a Devil Wears Prada 2 script signed by the cast, which has been donated by Stanley Tucci, a private film screening and lunch with Simon Pegg, and a clapperboard from House of the Dragon signed by Olivia Cooke.

Fans can also get their hands on the infamous radish from Netflix’s Beef season 2, which has been signed by the cast and donated by War Child founding global ambassador Carey Mulligan.

Among the other items being auctioned are signed set lists from Robbie Williams, a poster from The 1975, a signed poster from Coldplay, and two tickets to see Harry Styles at Wembley.

Anderson said in a statement: “War Child's Spring Clean is back for the third time running and this year I'm reminiscing on my time working on X Files. I've donated a personally signed photo of myself and David Duchovny, which I hope fans of the series will support as part of War Child's mission to protect, educate, and stand up for the rights of children around the world.

She continued: "All of the money raised from the auction and prize draws this year goes towards War Child's staggeringly important work providing immediate aid, safe spaces, specialist psychological support and more to some of the world's most vulnerable children that have been impacted by conflict. Thank you to everyone getting involved."

Charlotte Nimmo, fundraising engagement director at War Child UK, added: “Spring Clean is back for 2026 and we have some wonderful prizes on offer once again, thanks to the generosity of the creative industries and the incredible people who have donated."

She continued: "Right now, one in five children worldwide are growing affected by war, and public support has never mattered more. Every bid helps us support children whose lives have been torn apart by war.

"But this isn’t just about raising money, it’s about bringing moments of joy and hope back into children’s lives. Whether it’s through our programmes helping vulnerable children heal from trauma, or giving supporters the chance to snap up a unique piece of culture they’ll treasure forever, Spring Clean proves that even in the darkest times, there’s still room for fun, creativity and hope.”

The specialist charity dedicated to supporting children living through war will run its Spring Clean auction from 6 May to 27 May.
