BBC Children in Need believes that every child should have the chance to thrive and be the best that they can be. We support children aged 0-18 years across the UK and have identified local geographic and thematic areas of interest for funding in Northern Ireland.
- Our rolling grants funding considers applications for project and core funding up to 3 years.
- Pudsey Next Steps Grants supports place-based organisations with an annual turnover of less than £100,000 that have not applied to BBC CiN before. Please keep an eye on the website for programme eligibility and application deadlines.
- Big Sky Grants offer funding up to £5,000 to support the emotional wellbeing of children aged 8-13 years, living rurally. This is an invite only programme.
We currently fund over 100 grants in Northern Ireland to a value of £6million. Further details, including our team’s contact details, are available here.
