The BBC’s Children in Need has developed a new grant making strategy which will begin launching in autumn 2022. The strategy will focus on empowering disadvantaged children and young people, building awareness and empathy around issues, and building partnerships to bring communities and investors together. Project-based funding will continue to be offered, and funding for core/organisational costs will be offered as a separate grants scheme. These schemes will open to applications in October 2022. In spring 2023, an Emerging Grants Funding Stream will be launched for smaller, emerging organisations who may need greater support to access funding. Organisations will only be able to apply for one of these streams per year. BBC Children in Need to Begin Launching New Funding Programmes (UK)
