The BBC Children in Need grant supports UK charities and not for profit organisations working with disadvantaged children and young people who are 18 years old and under. Small grants of £10,000 or less per year for up to three years and Main Grants over £10,000 per year for up to three years. 
Children in Need give grants for projects delivered by organisations working with disadvantaged children and young people, who must be 18 years and under, living in the UK, the Isle of Man or the Channel Islands.
Disadvantages experienced by children and young people include:
• Illness, distress, abuse or neglect
• Any kind of disability
• Behavioural or psychological difficulties
• Living in poverty or situations of deprivation
The application should focus on the children your project will work with and the differences that your project will make for them. You should clearly be able to demonstrate how your project will change the lives of the children involved for the better. Where possible it should take into account their views and involve them in decisions that affect them.
