BBC Children in Need Main Grants Programme 2017 Deadlines Announced

Large grants of over £10,000 are available to support projects for up to three years.

Not-for-profit organisations in the UK can apply if they are supporting children and young people of 18 years and under who are experiencing disadvantage through:

Illness, distress, abuse or neglect.

Any kind of disability.

Behavioural or psychological difficulties.

Living in poverty or situations of deprivation.

Organisations must be working to combat this disadvantage and make a real difference to children and young people’s lives.

Organisations that already hold a grant from Children in Need can apply for further funding providing the current grant is coming to an end within the next 12 months. Applicants will need to be able to provide convincing evidence of the differences the grant has made to the lives of the disadvantaged children and young people the organisation has worked with.

The deadlines for applications are 1 June 2017 (midnight) and 13 September 2017 (midnight).
