Challenge Yourself for BBC Children in Need 2026! 💛
BBC Children in Need is back for 2026!
This year we’re asking you to Challenge Yourself and your class to runPudsey 2026!
runPudsey is a sponsorsed challenge to be completed by your pupils individually, together as a class or even as a whole school. Teachers, you can set the challenge and tailor it to your pupils’ needs and interests!
The best thing about runPudsey is that you get to choose… AND every pupil who fundraises gets a medal!
Remember to save the date: BBC Children in Need Day is on Friday 13th November this year!
Sign Up to BBC Children in Need!
Sign up to fundraise for BBC Children in Need below and you’ll be in with the chance to WIN:
A Pudsey Visit
A Puffin Book Bundle
£500 Amazon Voucher
Last year, 100% of the money you raised helped support children and young people across the UK — funding local projects and the people who make that support possible.
Right now, we can only afford to fund 1 in 6 organisations that ask for our help. That’s nearly half a million children going without our support when they need us by their side. With your support, we can change that.
THE IMPACT OF YOUR FUNDRAISING
£2 PAYS FOR A HEALTHY MEAL
for a child growing up in poverty, ensuring they have a hot meal and don’t go hungry.
£15 PAYS FOR A SPECIALISED TOY
to help a young child with cancer better understand their chemotherapy treatment.
£25 PAYS FOR A DAY OUT
for a child who is living in temporary accommodation to attend a day in a play scheme, to make friends and have fun.
