About Us
BBC Children in Need is the BBC's UK corporate charity. The annual telethon is one of the highs of the BBC calendar and plenty of activity takes place all across the UK around this time to help raise those crucial pennies to help improve the lives of disadvantaged children and young people across the UK. However, Pudsey is busy all year round helping to make sure the money you raise goes to those who need it the most.
As a result of the tremendous support we've received from supporters all across the UK, we're set to have another fantastic year. The 2008 Appeal raised an amazing £38 million which is already starting to make a difference to the lives of disadvantaged children and young people. You can find out more about the projects we fund by visiting our grants section.
Please take a look at our latest annual report and accounts to see how you helped to make a difference to the lives of children and young people in 07/08.

Administration Costs
For every penny you give us, a penny goes towards projects helping disadvantaged children in the UK. We are able to make this promise because the charity uses its investment income and Gift Aid to cover all running costs.
More detail about our running costs is given in our annual report and accounts, available by clicking on the link above. You can also download a summary of the expenses of our Chief Executive.
