Game On! For BBC Children in Need

BBC Children in Need united the gaming world on 10th November, when gamers joined forces to help raise money for the charity and highlight the positive impact of video games. The day culminated in a specially commissioned, live BBC TV show, Game On! For BBC Children in Need, on the BBC iPlayer and BBC Three, No 10th  7pm-9pm.

We are helping to fund charities all over the UK who are using video games to support children. We want to raise awareness about the benefits that responsible gaming can have. We also want to celebrate the social aspect of gaming and its power to unite people through play.  

The show was presented by BBC Radio 1’s Vick Hope, BBC gaming expert Steffan Powell and radio presenter Lauren Layfield.

They were joined by some of the UK’s top content creators including Slogo, Spencer FC, Yung Filly, Harry Pinero, the Quadrant team and Elz the Witch.

Globally renowned streamers Bateson87, Freyzplayz, Geeky Cassie, Koji, Leahviathan and Tubbo also streamed all the action live from the studio.
