Monthly Promotion
Children in Need

Friday November 14th is Children in Need. This year is the 28th edition of the BBC Children in Need fundraising telethon. Every year this event is held to encourage people to raise funds in order to help develop disadvantaged children.

Every year, schools across the UK get involved doing something different to raise money for Children in Need, it is an opportunity to have fun, do things you wouldn't normally do and generally have lots of fun whilst raising money.

Why don't you and your school get involved this year by taking part in a sponsored activity event, don't forget to wear your pedometers and get those steps up! Click here for more information.
