BBC Children in Need's Core Costs funding stream supports essential organisational and administrative spending. These are the key expenses required to keep your organisation running.
BBC Children in Need know it’s sometimes harder to secure funding for organisational running costs whilst delivering projects for children and young people. If you need funding for the types of costs listed below, or for other “Core” costs that would help to strengthen your organisation’s ability to support children and young people, then this might be the programme to choose. Core funding isn’t about delivering a specific project or service, it’s about having a solid foundation to do so.
Core Costs funding can be spent on your organisation’s central day-to-day operations. These might include, for example:
The Core Costs funding stream is for charities and not-for-profit organisations working with children and young people. Applicants to this programme can apply for grants for up to three years. BBC Children in Need aim to give quicker decisions for grants of £15,000 or less per year.
For more details on who can apply, what can and cannot be funded and how to apply, visit the BBC Children in Need website.
Grants of £100 are available for organisers of a 'Great Get Together' event, an annual celebration of everything that connects our communities.
Grants are available for organisations working with young people from under-represented communities in Yorkshire and the Humber to deliver projects and activities that use the power of storytelling and language.
Grants for work supporting girls aged 11-18 years who have been in the criminal justice system or who are at a high risk of entering it.
