BBC Children in Need – Main Grants

Back to Grants

BBC Children in Need aim to provide funding to help and make a difference in the lives of young people under the age of 18, who are experiencing disadvantages.

The Main Grants fund aims to support organisations with projects which address these differences by either working directly with children or seeking to improve their social and physical environments.
