The Charities Forum

The Charities Forum (originally called The Princes' Charities Forum) was founded by Prince William and Princess Harry in 2006 as a way of bringing together their different patronages. Princess Kate and Duchess Meghan's charities were later added following their respective marriages. The Sussexes patronages departed following their decision to step down. 

The Charities Forum is made up of all of William and Kate's patronages, as well as a few organizations they've worked with, but aren't officially patron of.

The goal of The Charities Forum is to foster collaboration and support between the different patronages.

The Charities Forum meets twice a year to allow William and Kate to get updates on all their patronage's recent activities and projects, as well as allow the charities to learn from each other's successes and struggles. The charities also develop relationships and collaborate on projects. The Forum is hosted by a different charity each time. (The Charities Forum meetings are usually private, unannounced engagements that are not listed on the CC.)
